Why this matters
A real statewide network
CONNEX supply chain sessions connect South Carolina manufacturers with real regional suppliers and buyers, not a generic directory.

Energy costs, addressed directly
Energy programmes give manufacturers a structured way to identify real reduction opportunities on the plant floor.
Frequently asked questions
What is CONNEX?
A supplier discovery and connection network for South Carolina manufacturers — SCMEP sessions help your team learn how to use it effectively.
We haven’t started any sustainability work — where do we begin?
The Sustainability Starter Workshop is built for exactly that stage — the fundamentals, before a full program.
