For AVL Solutions, every project begins with a simple goal: the people in the room should hear clearly, see clearly and never have to think about the technology making it possible. That focus has guided the company’s work in Greenville and across the region for more than 25 years.
Recognized as the Greenville Chamber’s Small Business of the Month for November 2026, AVL Solutions is a locally owned audiovisual company providing audio, video, lighting and staging for live events, along with permanent AV systems for churches, venues and commercial spaces.
On the event side, AVL supports conferences, corporate meetings, concerts and festivals across the Upstate and throughout the country. Every event begins with a clear understanding of the environment, goals and technical needs. From there, the team develops a tailored plan and carries it through, bringing a “business theater” mindset that blends technical execution with experience design. Most recently, the team handled stages, audio, lighting and video for Fall for Greenville, continuing its work with the City of Greenville on the downtown festivals that welcome visitors throughout the year.
On the installation side, AVL designs and installs permanent audio, video and lighting systems for churches, schools, businesses and event venues. The process starts with understanding how the room is used, who will be in it and who will run the system day to day. Whether the space is a sanctuary, a classroom or a conference room, the goal is the same: clear sound and video, a system that is simple to operate and room to grow as an organization’s needs change. Once a system is in place, AVL provides training and ongoing support, so clients have a team they can call when questions come up.
Under owner Alan Simonton, AVL serves businesses, nonprofits, churches, schools, venues and local government. Some clients call on the company for a single event, while others have returned for years, bringing AVL back for their annual meetings and conferences. Those lasting relationships are built on honest recommendations, clear communication and confidence in the team’s ability to deliver.
Many of AVL’s team members came up as musicians and live sound engineers in Greenville, with backgrounds in theatre, live production and worship. That experience on both sides of the stage shapes how the team works: they understand what performers need and what audiences expect, and they focus on the experience for both.
AVL Solutions is grateful to the Greenville Chamber for this recognition and to the clients, partners and fellow local businesses who trust the team with their events and spaces. As Greenville continues to grow, AVL remains committed to doing its work well, often behind the scenes, and to being part of the moments that bring this community together.
