Mount Pleasant Mayor Will Haynie and Ken French of Crews Subaru pose with local mascots from last year's EXPO
Mount Pleasant’s largest networking event is back, bigger than ever and completely packed. Presented by Crews Subaru, the 16th annual Mount Pleasant Chamber of Commerce Business & Community Expo will take over the Omar Shrine Convention Center at Patriots Point on Thursday, Sept. 17, from 11 a.m.-5 p.m.
For the second straight year, demand from the local business community has shattered records, selling out all exhibitor booths well ahead of the event. While the show floor is officially capped, the real opportunity shifts to the thousands of attendees expected to walk through the doors — and this year, attending is easier and more rewarding than ever.
Admission to the Expo is free and open to the public.
“We are honored to serve as the presenting sponsor of the Mount Pleasant Expo once again,” said Ken French of Crews Subaru. “Seeing the show floor sell out completely for a second year in a row proves just how strong and vibrant our local business community is, and Crews Subaru is honored to help drive that momentum.”
Organizers have lined up a slate of free perks for attendees:
- Mascot parade: Mount Pleasant Mayor Will Haynie will officially open the Expo by leading a festive parade of local mascots.
- Free admission and swag: Explore hundreds of interactive business displays, pick up giveaways and sample local offerings at no cost.
- Free job fair: Connect face-to-face with local employers actively hiring across the area.
- Free health screenings: Take advantage of complimentary skin cancer screenings provided by health care sponsor Waccamaw Dermatology.
- Free parking and shuttle service: Enjoy free parking paired with complimentary shuttle service provided by official golf cart sponsor Botero Carts.
Whether you are looking to advance your career, discover local service providers, grow your personal network or take advantage of free health resources, the 2026 Expo offers something for every Lowcountry resident.
