“We have a huge industrial develop-ment area,” said Greenville Board of Development President and Ceo Greg Sims.

one of the largest industries in Greenville is in the midst of a major expansion, and there have also been some positive developments in the local retail sector.

But for now, much of the Board of Development’s focus is on the industri-al parks. earlier this month, Sims addressed the Greenville City Council about the Board’s work plan for the coming year.

Sims said the Board will continue the effort at rebranding the three

industrial parks in the northwest part of Greenville under one name, Park West, including the creation of uniform entrance features and signage. the Board also intends to follow through on improvements to industrial Boulevard and continue a clean-up pro-gram for Park West.

“All of this area we want to develop as the Greenville industrial Development District,” Sims said.
