Testimonials: Some of our local business leaders talk about how the Myrtle Beach Regional Economic Development Corporation has helped their business to thrive in Horry County, SC. Call us to see how we can help your business to become one of our success stories. "Although we were recruited by numerous economic development organizations, it came down to three states. We chose Horry County because the Myrtle Beach Regional Economic Development Corporation covered all the bases. From site selection to networking with business leaders, educational institutions and companies that advanced our business plans, they left nothing to chance. " Bill Prince, CEO & President Integrated Environmental Technologies, Ltd. "Prior to purchasing our building in Loris, the Myrtle Beach Regional Economic Development Corporation came to us and said they'd like to connect us with state and local agencies that could be beneficial in our relocation process. And they did. A short time later, Integra was awarded a $100,000 grant through the Textile Revitalization Act from the State of South Carolina. We didn't have to research what resources may have been available to us, which really made a difference." Debbie Purcell, President Integra International, Inc. A WBE-certified business "We're strong supporters of the Myrtle Beach Regional Economic Development Corporation. Industries that want to relocate here depend on a well-educated work force, and we've welcomed the opportunity to join forces with other area institutions and MBREDC to attract businesses. The MBREDC staff could not be representing our community more professionally or more positively. It's a pleasure to be actively involved with the organization." Timothy M. Groza, Senior Director Webster University "The Myrtle Beach Regional Economic Development Corporation is an important entrepreneurial resource for the Myrtle Beach community. The expertise and dedication of the staff gives businesses along the Grand Strand vital access to the regional information they need to flourish." Ann Wood Mezian, President The Center for Excellence in Housing
