Charleston is a major tourist destination, with a
considerable number of luxury hotels, hotel chains,
inns, and bed and breakfasts and a large number of
award-winning restaurants and quality shopping. The city
has two shipping terminals, owned and operated by the
South Carolina Ports Authority, which are part of the
fourth largest container seaport on the East Coast and
the thirteenth largest container seaport in North
America. Piggly Wiggly Carolina Company, a grocery store
chain with stores in South Carolina and Georgia, is
headquartered in the city. Charleston is becoming a
prime location for information technology jobs and
corporations and has experienced the highest growth in
this sector between 2011 and 2012 due in large part to
the Charleston Digital Corridor. In 2013, the Milken
Institute ranked the Charleston region the ninth best
performing economy in the US due in large part to the
growing IT sector. Notable companies include Blackbaud,
SPARC, BoomTown, CSS and Benefitfocus. Higher education
is also an important sector in the local economy, with
institutions such as the Medical University of South
Carolina, College of Charleston, The Citadel, The
Military College of South Carolina, and Charleston
School of Law. Charleston is also an important art
destination, named a top 25 arts destination by
AmericanStyle magazine. (from Wikipedia)
