Join us at the Greenville Convention Center for the SC Manufacturing Conference + Expo on Nov 5-8th!

The South Carolina Manufacturing Conference & Expo came to life in 2015 with the sole intention of connecting the manufacturing community, in not just South Carolina, but the Southeast. We strive to deliver relevant content to be the most significant manufacturing event of the year.

Each year manufacturing professionals come together from across the Southeast to discuss the latest manufacturing trends and topics, share their vision, become inspired, and immerse themselves in manufacturing culture.

More than 200 companies from across the southeast exhibited at our most recent live conference in Greenville, SC with 2,000+ registered attendees!
