Does my product qualify?

Products must be made in South Carolina. The manufacturers’ headquarters does not need to be in South Carolina. Products must be manufactured using a manufacturing process. For example, a restaurant that makes pizzas would not qualify, but a plant that mass produces frozen pizzas would.
