Showcase Your Solutions at the Southeast’s Premier Manufacturing Event

The South Carolina Manufacturing Conference & Expo (SCMCE) is the go-to event for connecting with over 1,400 manufacturing professionals seeking innovative solutions. Exhibiting here means more than just a booth—it’s an opportunity to build lasting relationships, capture quality leads, and maintain year-round visibility through SC BIZ News.

Top 3 Reasons to Exhibit:

Engage with Decision-Makers

Meet CEOs, COOs, and senior executives actively seeking solutions to current manufacturing challenges. The expo floor is designed to maximize exposure, ensuring every exhibitor benefits from increased traffic and networking opportunities.

Capture High-Quality Leads

Enhance your booth with lead capture technology to collect attendee information efficiently. This feature supports immediate follow-ups and long-term business development.

Maintain Year-Round Visibility

Benefit from continuous exposure through SC BIZ News, the Southeast’s leading source for business intelligence. All attendees receive a one-year digital subscription, keeping your brand top-of-mind well beyond the event.

Secure your spot today and position your company at the forefront of manufacturing innovation.

Guaranteed Exposure

The entire expo floor gets walked by every manufacturer there. This year, we’ve added even more networking spaces to increase traffic and boost visibility across all exhibit areas.

150+ exhibitors will be there

Join a powerful lineup of manufacturers and support
companies across technology, supply chain and logistics, automation, software, machinery, universities, quality control, packaging, materials suppliers, industry associations, and more.

Get Lead Capturing!

Upgrade your booth to receive a lead capture license and the full attendee list. Allowing on-site badge scanning to capture contact information and support post-event follow-up. There’s no better place to generate qualified leads.

Driven by SC BIZ News

Our content is driven by the #1 authoritative source of news and intelligence in the business community. The editorial authority drives attendance from the right minds that will ignite business growth for exhibitors. That means more qualified conversations for you.

Deep and Trusted Relationships

Business leaders trust us to guide their present and help them plan for the future. Attendees come with real challenges and leave with real solutions—often by discovering you. Unlike manufacturing organizations, we provide an objective yet authoritative voice trusted across the industry.

Year-Round Connectedness

This event isn’t one-and-done. All attendees receive a 1- year SC BIZ News digital subscription, keeping your brand in front of this audience long after the expo ends.

New for 2025: Even More Visibility

With the new Learning Lab, Product Stage, and Expo Stage, the show floor has been redesigned to ensure every exhibitor gets seen—regardless of booth location.
