elcome to the eighth edition of the Columbia Regional Business Report’s Book of Lists. Our researchers have worked long hours to compile the lists for the 2017 edition. You hold in your hands a source of information that will help your business grow, as well as helping you find the resources and services you need every day. Columbia is growing and changing rapidly. For that reason, it is important to update the lists constantly. We publish a new Book of Lists every year. And we’re always adding lists that we haven’t published before. New this year are Commercial Property Management Companies and Senior Living Facilities. In addition to this hard copy version, you can purchase extended lists under the resources tab of www.columbiabusinessreport.com. Go to our web address and click on the Menu, then go to Resources and Buy Business Lists. There you can download the lists as Excel spreadsheets. This digital alternative also gives you access to lists from the Charleston and Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson regions, as well as statewide data. To help you find the topic you’re looking for, we have color-coded tabs along the right Licia Jackson side of the pages. For example, the Business Services section, the second in this book, has a turquoise tab on the side of all the pages within that section. Associate And If you want to find a listing of a specific company, there is an index of all compaPublisher nies listed at the back of this book. A big thank you to all our sponsors and advertisers, whose support makes it possible for us to continue to publish and expand the Columbia Regional Business Report’s Book of Lists. Special thanks go to our title sponsors, Palmetto State Glass and Lexington Medical Center. Read more about these companies on the About Our Sponsors page.
