About the Fort Mill Economic Council

Fort Mill Economic Council was originally established in 2004 as the Fort Mill Downtown Association which consisted of community volunteers helping to improve the look, feel, and experience of the Fort Mill historic downtown area. At the end of 2007, a merger took place between Move Fort Mill Forward and the Fort Mill Downtown Association. These two organizations came together, merged talents and goals, and moved forward as a much stronger organization with a broader area of interest. The emphasis was to maintain a strong focus on our historic downtown, but the overall vision was to create and develop a strong working relationship between the community, retailers, local government, future investors, and the "next workforce generation."

At the end of 2010, a transition occurred rebranding the name from Move Fort Mill Forward to the Fort Mill Economic Council and established the following economic related mission statement for the Town of Fort Mill.

Mission Statement - Fort Mill Economic Council is to stimulate economic growth and development in the Town of Fort Mill by creating a symbol of progress while preserving the community's charm and uniqueness.

Since the beginning of the Fort Mill Economic Council (FMEC), and establishment of its initial goals, the face of our town has continued to change, due mainly to the immense growth in the Fort Mill Township. As change continues in Fort Mill, so does the focus of the Fort Mill Economic Council.

The Fort Mill Economic Council is located in "The Little Red Caboose" at 101 S White Street, Fort Mill SC.
