SC Business One-Stop The South Carolina Business One-Stop (SCBOS) Web site is a collaboration of several state and federal agencies and private entities that have a commitment to reducing red tape and ensuring more simplicity for historically complicated and time-consuming tasks necessary to open a business. The site will allow for an electronic "one-stop shop" for South Carolina businesses (especially smaller businesses with fewer hours and less travel time and manpower to spare) to register and obtain permits and licensing.To visit SCBOS, click here.
Small Business Development Center of South Carolina Under a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Small Business Administration the Small Business Development Center (SC SBDC) program was established to aid small business start-up ventures and to assist in the continued growth of small businesses across the country. The program is supported with federal, state and private funds and is open to any present or prospective small business owner generally fee free. Yearly, we see upwards of 3,500 entrepreneurs and current small business owners walk through the doors of our seventeen statewide offices. By providing a wide-array of services and resources, the SC SBDC does big things for small business in South Carolina!
