aces of the Lowcountry is an annual sponsored publication that introduces the “faces” of local industry leaders and experts. These profiles span the Lowcountry, from the owner of a computer company to hair stylists and expert home builders. With more than 70 profiles included in these pages, we bring you the stories of Bluffton’s and Hilton Head Island’s leading entrepreneurs. Every business owner is a local leader and the face of their respective industry. Many have chosen to include their entire staff in their portrait photos, and some even included pets. Running a successful business takes courage, hard work and a commitment to making a difference. These leaders go the extra mile to keep the Lowcountry thriving.
