Manufacturing is one of the Upstate’s top industries, so it’s no surprise nine local products are featured in this year’s Manufacturing Madness, the annual bracket competition hosted by the SC Manufacturers Alliance highlighting 16 companies making cool things in our state. Greenville’s Lockheed Martin won in 2023 for the F-16 Fighting Falcon.
