Setting up a business here has been a pleasant experience for us due to the efforts of the S.C. Department of Commerce, S.C. Technical College System, Spartanburg Area Chamber of Commerce and A. Perry & Co., our local consultants.�

Perry & Co., a consutling firm located in Spartanburg, said, �The people of Preferred Sourcing have been great to work with. �As a former supplier executive and economic development professional, it has been a great pleasure to assist them in joining the local community and supplier infrastructure. This announcement shows again the continuation of the automotive sectors growth in this region, which fortunately shows only slight signs of slowdown at the moment. The decisions which the state and local communities made to embrace the sector of industry many years ago will continue to generate opportunities here for others like Preferred Sourcing to include South Carolina on their list of locations.�
