BOOKLISTS 2014 of

FROM THE PUBLISHER

15 YEARS BRINGING YOU THE BEST

Over the past 15 years this publication has grown into an essential tool for success. From our first 52-page resource guide back in 1999 to this year’s 144-page publication, we have gathered in one place the critical data behind the economic force that is the Upstate business community. GSA Business Book of Lists is unique in that it contains a collection of detailed information about Upstate business that is not available anywhere else. As the book grows we have continued to enhance the usefulness of the publication by adding better navigation through color-coded sections that include table of contents and section titles at the top of each page and within the tabs in the margins. We are once again taking a look back at last year with our 2013 Timeline starting on page 6. There is also an index of lists in the back of the book on Page 144. Whether you are new to the Upstate market or an established business, the Book of Lists provides the resources for knowing the names in the regional business scene and the information essential for facilitating those key connections. It is a true business-to-business tool that is easy to navigate and provides a wealth of information and statistics on Upstate business. Putting together the Book of Lists continues to be a complex endeavor, and the end result is a publication that will help you build your business as well as find the services you need to enhance your operations. Under the “Resources” tab at www.gsabusiness.com, you will find the electronic version of our Lists & Leads. You can maximize your ability to take advantage of that effort by using our specialized software. Online, you can add your own data and re-key your listing as changes occur within your company. Keeping your data current is important because paid subscribers are able to download lists as Excel spreadsheets, view lists in PDF format and use a Google Maps search option all year long. Since we are the only statewide media organization, those subscribers also will have access to Midlands, Lowcountry and statewide information online. And remember, there are editions of the Book of Lists from our affiliates, the Charleston Regional Business Journal and the Columbia Regional Business Report. Thank you to all the companies that shared updated or new information with us this year. We strive to maintain accuracy and heavily rely on the cooperation of contributing businesses to provide us with the most accurate information available. We appreciate the time and effort. Ultimately, the accuracy and comprehensiveness of the lists is only as good as the information supplied by those who have chosen to participate. We thank you, our readers and our advertisers, for making our annual Book of Lists possible. Our sponsors play a vital role in enabling us to continue to bring you this essential tool for success; please take a moment to learn about these companies on the About Our Sponsors section on pages 4 and 5. Our title sponsors BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina, CertusBank, University Center of Greenville and Upstate SC Alliance deserve another round of applause for continuing to have the vision to provide this vital resource to the business community. Thank you for being a reader of GSA Business and on behalf of the entire GSA Business staff, we wish you continued success in the coming year.

Welcome from our Presenting Sponsors

Jeffrey M. Brandt CPO, COO & Founder Ability Prosthetics and Orthotics Inc.

David Powell CEO, Hospice Care of South Carolina

e wish to extend congratulations to this year’s Health Care Heroes. These individuals' courage, dedication and selflessness epitomize the standard toward which we should all strive to enhance the health care industry as a whole. At Ability, we see such heroism in our patients. Day in and day out, they fully devote themselves to improving their lives or overcoming a challenge. Ability prides itself on being as comprehensive as possible for our clients. Our certified orthotist and prosthetist practitioners evaluate, design and fit patients with custom, as well as off-the-shelf, orthotic and prosthetic devices to assist in patients' rehabilitation and to improve their ability to achieve the everyday. On behalf of everyone at Ability, thank you to all the winners for exemplifying the best in all of us.

eing a leader in health care is more than being the largest, the most technologically proficient or having the most locations. Being a leader in health care also means exhibiting the core values of caring and compassion that can so easily be overlooked in today’s fast-paced and oftentimes self-absorbed world. We at Hospice Care of South Carolina are proud to be a sponsor for Health Care Heroes. The individuals honored this year epitomize the selflessness and dedication all of us in health care professions strive toward. These individuals dedicate their time and talents — going above and beyond — to positively change peoples’ lives. Congratulations to this year’s Health Care Heroes.
