Expo
to look at purchasing power of Charleston-area Latinos
By LISA DE ARMAS
Co-chair, Charleston Metro Chamber of Commerce Latin American Business
Expo
Special to CharlestonCurrents.com
DEC.
3, 2009 -- Charleston area businesses are just starting to realize
the purchasing power of the growing Latino demographic. According
to a recent report from the Immigration Policy Center, businesses
owned by Latinos and Asians in the state of South Carolina had combined
revenues of $2.8 billion and provided over 20,000 jobs throughout
the state in 2008. The Center also reported that Latinos and Asians
living in South Carolina had a combined purchasing power of $5.2
billion. In 2007, immigrants made up 5.4 percent of the workforce
in South Carolina.

With
this in mind, the Charleston Metro Chamber of Commerce will host
a Latin American Business Expo on Thursday, Dec. 10, from
2 p.m. to 6 p.m. at 10 Storehouse Row. The expo's goal is to educate
attendees on the economic impact that Latin Americans and their
businesses have on our region, and to offer an opportunity to exhibit
to this community.
This
year's Expo is an absolute must for area business owners and service
providers trying to reach the 27,000-34,000 Latinos living in the
Charleston metro area. (The range in the numbers reflects the difference
between U.S. Census available data and more actual state surveys.)
Attendees will be able to get the tools and invaluable information
they need to effectively market to this growing demographic and
find out what services are still needed. In addition, they will
be able to get insight into topics such as the economic impact of
Latinos and understanding cultural barriers.
 |
The
event will also provide Latin American and traditional business
owners with an opportunity to network with industry experts during
roundtable discussions to learn about expanding their market reach,
financial and funding resources, outsourcing labor, and government
contracting. The Expo will also offer the chance to learn more about
the immense and rich multicultural community of business owners
and entrepreneurs in our region who are looking for opportunities
to expand their businesses and partnerships.
The
topics and speakers include "The Economic Impact of Immigration,"
with speaker David Hughes of Clemson University, and "Cultural
Barriers," with speaker Eileen Chepenik of Trident Literacy.
The Small Business Resource Panel and Round Table Discussions include:
- 2010
Census - Diana Salazar, U.S. Census Bureau.
- Entrepreneurial
Opportunities - Mary Dickerson, FastTracSC, and Ram Dachepalli,
SCORE.
- Expanding
Your Reach: Marketing to Latin American and Traditional Businesses
- Lisa De Armas, El Informador Spanish Language Newspaper.
- I-9
Compliance - Bridgette Beasley, The Citadel.
- Outsourcing
Labor - Michael Lalich, Lowcountry Labor.
- Small
Business Resource Network and Funding - Tom Lauria, Small Business
Development Center, and Cindi Rourk, Charleston Citywide Local
Development Corporation.
The
Latin American Business Expo only happens one time a year, so don't
miss this priceless opportunity to network with Charleston area
Latino business leaders and service providers. Many local businesses
(even the U.S. Census Bureau) rely on community events such as this
one and Charleston's Spanish newspaper, El Informador, as a resource
to new business opportunities.
The
cost to attend the event is $15 for chamber members, $30 for nonmembers.
To
register, visit this Web page. To learn more about the Expo
or the Latin American Business Council, please contact Emily Brown
at 805-3042 or ebrown@charlestonchamber.org.

De Armas also is president and a director of El
Informador newspaper.

Psst!
Check out these places you haven't thought to shop
By
ANN THRASH, editor
DEC.
3, 2009 -- This is "Buy Local Week," a campaign sponsored
by Lowcountry Local First to encourage us to shop at locally owned
and operated business during the holiday season. We want to do our
part here at CharlestonCurrents.com, so we've been stashing away
some ideas of unusual local places to shop that support the "Buy
Local" idea - not only this week, but throughout December and
on into what we hope will be an economically sunnier 2010.

Check
out these suggestions - among them, a couple of special events that
we haven't seen mentioned anywhere else, which means your gift recipients
will be not only surprised by your wonderful gift, but amazed at
your resourcefulness.
And
if you have a distinctively local, secret shopping spot or gift
suggestion for Christmas and Hanukkah, send an e-mail to me at editor@charlestoncurrents.com
and let me know the details. We'll check out what we can and publish
some of your ideas between now and the end of the month.
Shop
a museum store: We've long been fans of buying gifts at museum
stores and shops at noteworthy attractions around the Lowcountry.
Few people seem to think of shopping there, which makes these gifts
even more of a pleasure to give and receive. This year, check out
the gift shops at the Gibbes Museum of Art, the Charleston Museum,
Boone Hall Plantation, Drayton Hall, Middleton Place, Magnolia Plantation
and Gardens, and the South Carolina Aquarium, to name just a few.
You'll find some unusual items and support "the locals"
as well. For example, the Gibbes recently remodeled its 1,000-square-foot
store, which now features home-décor items, art-related gifts
and books, distinctive jewelry, wool throws, reading glasses, silk
scarves and some extraordinary handbags. Many of these shops also
feature items that are handmade by local artisans, so shopping at
these spots really does have a ripple effect on the Lowcountry economy.

Gift-quality

County Park and Recreation Commission's Great Outdoor Gear Sale

Parks
Conservancy T-shirt to get national spotlight
The
Charleston Parks Conservancy will be getting plenty of national
attention on Dec. 6 when one of the organization's T-shirt
is the focus of IWearYourShirt.com, a marketing phenomenon in which
the company founder wears one business or organization's T-shirt
for a full day and promotes the organization online.
Beginning
in 2009, company founder Jason Sadler began selling the upper half
of his wardrobe. Each day of the year, he promotes the particular
business or group with videos, photos, and blog and Twitter posts.
This Sunday, Sadler will be promoting the Conservancy, giving the
organization and the city of Charleston plenty of publicity.
Since
its inception more than two years ago, the Conservancy has been
heavily involved in social media with blogs, Twitter, Facebook and
YouTube as a way to reach Charleston area residents and promote
the city's local parks and green spaces. "This was a natural
fit for us," Executive Director Jim Martin says. "We are
already all over various social media channels, so this was just
one more creative way to promote the organization and Charleston's
parks."
The
Conservancy soon will be launching an online store where visitors
can purchase Conservancy T-shirts and other merchandise. For details
on the group, go to http://www.parkangels.org.

HISTORY
SPOTLIGHT
Elliott
Society of Natural History
Founded
in Charleston in November 1853, the Elliott Society of Natural History
was established for the purpose of promoting the study of natural
history, especially in South Carolina. Named after the city's noted
botanist Stephen Elliott, the organization represented the maturation
of scientific interests in Charleston, which by then was the center
of natural history studies in the South.
Encouraged
by the renowned naturalist Louis Agassiz, the Charleston Museum
curator Francis Simmons Holmes played a key role in establishing
the society. Eager to emulate the highly successful natural history
society founded in Philadelphia in 1812 and the one established
in Boston in 1830, Charleston scientists joined with Holmes in creating
the Elliott Society. Unlike its sister organizations in the North,
however, the society was hampered by a comparatively small urban
population and scarcity of funds. Nevertheless, although its membership
never exceeded eighty during the antebellum period and while monthly
attendance was usually low, it succeeded admirably and managed to
publish one volume of its proceedings and one issue of a journal
prior to the Civil War. Especially supportive of the society were
the naturalists John McCrady and Lewis R. Gibbes, the latter of
whom served as the society's president for most of its existence.
Inactive
during the Civil War, the Elliott Society resumed its activities
soon afterward. In an attempt to broaden its appeal, the organization
changed its name to the Elliott Society of Science and Arts in 1867.
Although it enjoyed brief periods of revival, the society was moribund
by 1891, thus ending its notable contributions to the study of natural
history in South Carolina.
