The five questions we asked
Every company in this cell is measured on the same questions, written the way a buyer would type them. That is what makes the ranking a comparison rather than a collection of anecdotes.
- 1“Best suppliers of conveyors and material handling equipment in South Carolina”
- 2“Who supplies custom stainless steel sanitary conveyor systems in South Carolina”
- 3“I need a South Carolina conveyor and material handling partner for a new automated packaging line, who should I talk to”
- 4“Top conveyors and material handling equipment suppliers in South Carolina for food and beverage plant buyers”
- 5“Which South Carolina conveyor and material handling integrators can design turnkey systems with robotics and PLC controls”
- 6“List 20 conveyors and material handling equipment companies in South Carolina with their specialties.”the roster question
Each question is asked more than once, which is why a company's score is out of 15 answers rather than out of the number of questions.
