South Carolina Forestry Commission

The goal of the Forestry Commission’s Business Development Program is to enhance the contribution of South Carolina’s forest resources and forest product-related businesses to the state’s economy. We accomplish this goal by: – producing current forest resource information
– describing the health of the existing forest industry; – promoting South Carolina forest products to global markets
– and assisting as needed in the expansion of forest product manufacturing.
The Economic Development Group has three staff positions that work as a team, including a forest resource analyst, a forest products marketing specialist, and an economic development specialist. Customized assistance is available in market analysis, resource analysis, and industry expansion.
