he Darla Moore School of Business is proud to once again sponsor the Columbia Regional Business Report’s Book of Lists. Since our founding as the School of Commerce in 1919, the Moore School has been a key driver in South Carolina’s economic engine, preparing new leaders for the global economy, and producing important research that benefits the people and businesses that call South Carolina home. Of course you know us as a top-ranked international business school, but did you know that we also have a Top 10 degree in Risk Management and Insurance? Or that the Aspen Institute’s Beyond Grey Pinstripes survey places us in the top 20% of business schools globally, and Bloomberg Businessweek ranks our MBA degrees among the Top 5 for return on investment? Our new building, quickly rising at the gateway to the Innovista, will help us continue this strong historical partnership, and build upon our growing international reputation. The facilities in our new home will allow faculty and students in every department on campus to work with business researchers to commercialize inventions and ideas. As we move forward, the Moore School is working to becoming an even stronger partner for South Carolina businesses. We hope you have a productive and prosperous 2013.

The Columbia Metropolitan Airport is a major economic player in the region; generating approximately $85.7 million in direct output, of which $44.3 million is paid to approximately 1,526 direct full-time jobs. Combined, airport tenants and visitors generate $421.4 million in total economic output making it a key platform for economic growth in the communities it serves. Columbia Metropolitan Airport continues to see an increase in passengers and a lowering of costs allowing the airport to be increasingly competitive with surrounding airports and remains the preferred travel hub for business travelers throughout the Midlands.

Law & Government

e’re pleased to once again sponsor the Book of Lists. It’s a great resource that you can refer to when you need to know “who’s doing what” — especially since things seem to change at such a hectic pace these days. Know what else is changing? Health care — and thanks to BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina and BlueChoice® HealthPlan, it’s changing for the better. We’re collaborating with physicians across the state to provide a path toward healthy living for all South Carolinians. When you’re making your list of possible health insurance plans and providers, we hope you’ll visit aHealthySC.tv to learn more about what we’re doing. Because when it comes to something as important as your health care, it matters how you’re treated.

SONOCO RECYCLING Ȗ

S

onoco Recycling does a lot more than collect a blue bin full of paper and plastic once a week. The recycling company is changing what it means to keep waste out of the landfill. “We offer a broad spectrum of recycling,” says Steve Hall, plant manager. “Not only for residential, but also for commercial and industrial.” While Sonoco Recycling handles the residential recycling for almost two thirds of South Carolina, the Company also wants to make it easy for businesses to recycle. The Company will pick up single-stream material, including office paper, aluminum cans, drink bottles and other containers for recycling from your office site. Sonoco Recycling offers cardboard collection services as well. Additionally, Sonoco Recycling offers an onsite shredding service to ensure that all of your documents are disposed of properly. Sonoco Recycling also makes sure its facilities are able to handle all customers’ recycling needs. The Company has spent $4 million in the last three years to upgrade the Columbia recycling facility, from the size of the plant to the technology used. Because of these efforts, Sonoco Recycling has seen double-digit growth. “In part, our growth is driven by increased public acceptance of recycling,” says Hall. “Local municipalities understand the importance of recycling and because of this, the volume of recycled material has grown tremendously.” Sonoco Recycling is in part responsible for

this increase in knowledge. Through its progressive education outreach programs, the Company teaches about 10,000 people each year about the importance of recycling. Additionally, it provides information on which materials can be recycled and which finished commodities use recycled materials. Hall says the more people understand about recycling, the more likely they are to do it. “We work closely with municipalities and civic leaders to show the benefits of recycling to all who are involved,” says Hall. Sonoco Recycling’s comprehensive and customized process is available to any program or business. Dedicated account representatives will audit your current waste stream and help you implement sustainable solutions to reduce your waste and increase recycling. Sonoco Recycling is also continually expanding the materials it accepts. From mixed plastics, such as yogurt containers, to rigid plastics, like paint buckets, the Company is now able to accept more recyclables than ever, and also has an increased capacity to remove glass from the recycling stream. Sonoco Recycling goes far beyond simply processing single stream, curbside recycling. From making your business more environmentally friendly to helping keep the Midlands beautiful, Sonoco Recycling can be counted on for all of your recycling needs.
