Blythewood signWelcome to The Blythewood Business Coalition -
Since 1998

Many businesses in the 29016 area code in the Blythewood, South Carolina have banded together to unite in cause and work together in purpose to help nurture and protect our business community. Blythewood is a small town rich in heritage but in danger of being swallowed by Columbia's urban sprawl and industrialization. In either event, Blythewood is in danger of loosing it's charm as a residential community and it's personality as a place to do business.

Purpose: The coalition exists to promote Blythewood area businesses by providing a forum of communication to exchange information, and ideas as they relate to business. To promote harmonious interaction between area businesses, the local governments, and the community at large by giving all business one collective voice.
