Each year, Greenville Magazine has the distinct pleasure of honoring five of Greenville’s top business people. These honorees embody traits we should all strive for – vision, entrepreneurship, community and civic contributions, leadership, success and dedication.

Every year, we honor individuals who have made significant contributions to our city, our region and our state. They have dedicated themselves to making Greenville and the Upstate economically competitive. They have embraced the vision for what we are and will become. They have served as mentors and community leaders for the rest of us. And for this, we are indebted to them all.
