Vol. 16 No.13 Columbia Regional Business Report

of BOOKLISTS

For several years, Columbia was a city my family drove through on the way to the beach from Louisville, Ky. I knew it was the capital of South Carolina and the home of the Gamecocks. Beyond that, not much else. We did stop at a reptile-themed restaurant along Interstate 26 one year.

Jason (Lizard’s Thicket, perhaps?)

Thomas Fast forward to today. Columbia is constantly on my mind as executive Executive editor editor of SC Biz News.

A lot is happening here.

Industries are growing (hello, Scout Motors).

Infrastructure is expanding (we see you, Columbia International Airport). Lifestyle is evolving (cheers to you, Iron Hill Brewery).

Those are just a few projects that come to mind in my still fresh 16-month stint at SC Biz News.

Something else that comes to mind: Soda City. Like any curious journalist, one of my first questions to my colleagues was about the history behind the nickname. Was Columbia the birthplace of soda pop? (Or Coke, as we call it where I come from). Well, not so much. I was a little let down to learn it stems from Cola, an old nickname for Columbia.

(I was also told that cool people don’t use the Soda City moniker. Duly noted).

As a history buff, I’ve learned that Columbia is steeped in it. Including this tidbit, from discoversouthcarolina.com: Columbia was founded in 1786, but you won’t see many 18th or early-19th century buildings there. That’s because twothirds of Columbia burned to the ground during the Civil War when Gen. William T. Sherman entered the city in 1865.

It is still rising from the ashes.

Columbia seems to exist in the shadows of headlinegrabbing cities like Greenville, Greer and Charleston.

Columbia, in my mind, is the blue-collar elder statesman that keeps chugging along, minding its business, with an eye toward the future.

In Richland County as a whole — the geographic center of the state — a diverse population thrives among students at the state’s largest university, employees in state and federal government at the state capital in Columbia, and a mix of businesses that tap into a skilled workforce. And it’s thriving.

“Over the past five years, we have seen historic capital investment in Richland County,” Richland County Council Chairman Overture Walker said in a story in SCBIZ Magazine. “Between 2020 and 2021, there were 2,800 jobs added. We have seen $1 billion in capital investment in Richland County over the past two years.”

And Columbia, Soda City, is at the center of it all.

I’ll drink to that.

Emergency funds South Carolina’s constitution requires the state to maintain a rainy day fund for unexpected circumstances.

$732,100,000

By law, the General Reserve Fund must be 5% of General Fund revenues and may be used to cover shortfalls from general funds receipts. For FY2023-24, the reserve fund is over $732 million.

$209,194,431

The Capital Reserve Fund must equal 2% of the General Fund. The money must be used to replenish the General Reserve Fund if necessary. However, if that money isn't needed, then the General Assembly can appropriate the money for one-time expenditures such as capital improvement projects.

What about schools?

Education is the largest expenditure for state government. For Fiscal Year 2023-24, more than $5 billion, or about 44% of the General Fund, is allocated for educational expenses in South Carolina.

$3.6 Billion

K-12 education receives the highest allocation of funding from the General Fund. For fiscal year 2023-24, it is budgeted for more than $3.6 billion, or about 35% of the General Fund budget.

$1.05 Billion

Colleges and universities receive far less money than K-12 from the General Fund. For 2023-24, that amount is $1.05 billion, an increase of about $100 million from 2022-23.

$593.5 Million

Over $593 million from the S.C. Education Lottery is allocated to education expenses.

Plane orders at Boeing's North Charleston plant plummeted in recent years before rebounding in 2022, a dual effect of two 737MAX crashes and the severe drop in airline travel due to pandemic lockdowns. That has caused the aerospace industry's share of S.C. exports to fall from a high of 30% in 2019 to its current 9.3%. Aircraft exports, No. 1 in the state for several years, now are No. 4.

RETAIL

Columbia baker helps stock Ukrainian kitchens MOLLY HULSEY ERIN NOBLES closed the door on Silver Spoon Bake Shop’s day-to-day retail sales as ingredient costs rose and employees became scarce.

She still crafts cookies, cupcakes, croissants and other baked delicacies for online orders for the Columbia shop, but inflation and the labor shortage haven’t been the only current affairs to affect her operations.

As the Russian military began to tear through Ukraine in February, sparking what American think tank the Atlantic Council calls the biggest refugee crisis since World War II, thousands of Americans watched in horror from their living rooms.

Since then, concerned observers have hung yellow-andblue flags in solidarity, boycotted Russian vodka and sent aid abroad.

Others have supported local establishments trying to make a difference. Customers at Nobles’ Devine Street bakery have bought specially designed petit fours, raising $2,210 to sponsor meals for Ukrainian refugees.

Nobles and her one employee were so busy rushing around the kitchen to fulfill 100 orders of petit fours the day SC Biz News reached out to her, so she only had a moment to catch her breath and respond via email.

“Our petit fours — we call them party fours — are one of our top selling items, and since I was able to incorporate the Ukrainian national flower, a sunflower, and hearts that are half yellow, half blue, I knew it would appeal to many people who wanted to help in some way,” she told SC Biz News.

The French Culinary Institute-trained baker modeled the drive after a fundraiser she had launched for a regular customer who had lost her home to flooding.

Following the first days of the invasion, she contacted World Central Kitchen, an emergency food relief nonprofit founded by José Andrés, the dean at the New York Citybased institute she attended. She then donated 100% of the proceeds from the special party fours, offered in two special online events, toward the organization.

“I do not know him personally, but he was a dean at my cu-

linary school in New York City and I went to a demonstration he put on,” she said. “He is a great chef with a big heart.”

Since the launch of World Central Kitchen’s Chefs for Ukraine mission, the nonprofit has served 16.4 million meals to Ukrainians across eight countries and in more than 100 cities and towns in Ukraine, according to data from the organization as of April 30.

Donations from Silver Spoon and other fundraisers helped World Central Kitchen to transport 8 million pounds of food to hundreds of refugee assistance centers and shelters, as well as the kitchens of 440 restaurants, food trucks and caterers.

As Russia advanced on Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second largest city, on April 16, a missile wounded four World Central Kitchen staff members and destroyed the city’s Yaposhka kitchen.

“This is the reality here,” Nate Mook, a World Central Kitchen employee said in a statement after the attack.

“Cooking is a heroic act of bravery.”

The Yaposhka kitchen team — several of the thousands of chefs, bakers and cooks on the ground in Ukraine with World Central Kitchen — was up and running again in a new location within two days, according to the organization.

At home in South Carolina, Nobles shared how crafting the petit fours was a bittersweet and meditative experience.

“I really had a more somber experience making these, because the whole time I was decorating them, all I could think of was how incredibly awful it would have to be to leave your home and family behind,” she said. “It made me extra thankful that I live in the U.S. and have never had to experience anything like this.”

Favorite quote: “It is not the critic who counts ... The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
