GREENVILLE, SOUTH CAROLINA
Strategy and operations consulting in Greenville.
The commercial center of Upstate South Carolina, where former textile country has become a base for tire, automotive, power-equipment and engineering employers, with Michelin's North American headquarters in Greenville.
THE LOCAL ECONOMY
What drives business in Greenville.
Foreign direct investment reshaped the Upstate after textile mills closed: Michelin runs its North American headquarters here, BMW's plant sits in neighbouring Spartanburg County, and GE Vernova makes gas turbines in Greenville. A supplier base of auto parts, plastics and metalworking firms serves these anchors, and Clemson's automotive research campus, CU-ICAR, supports engineering talent. Prisma Health and a revived downtown have helped attract professional services firms and corporate offices.

WHAT COMPANIES HERE FACE
The decisions in front of Greenville management teams.
Suppliers to BMW, Michelin and other large manufacturers face strict quality requirements, annual price-down requests and production schedules they do not control. The Upstate labour market is tight for maintenance technicians and engineers, and population growth is raising wages and housing costs. Many family-owned firms are deciding whether to invest in automation and capacity or sell to larger consolidators.
