The Kim S. Miller Family Enterprise Institute of South Carolina (FEISC) at Anderson University is proud to welcome Steve White Auto Group as a Framing Family, furthering the Institute’s mission of supporting multigenerational family businesses across the state.
Founded more than 25 years ago, Steve White Auto Group is one of Greenville’s only family-owned dealerships, representing Volkswagen, Audi, and Volvo, in addition to offering a wide selection of quality pre-owned vehicles. The dealership, now led by second-generation owner Marc White, has grown to include more than 150 team members while remaining committed to its founding values of Integrity, Excellence, Professionalism and Family.
“Family enterprises like Steve White Auto Group are at the heart of South Carolina’s economy and culture,” said Dr. Brad Bechtold, Executive Director of the FEISC. “Their dedication to both business excellence and family legacy aligns perfectly with our mission to help families thrive across generations. We are honored to have them as a Framing Family.”
As a Framing Family, Steve White Auto Group will gain access to exclusive benefits including peer-learning opportunities, educational programming led by Anderson University faculty and national experts, networking events with other family enterprises, and recognition as an ambassador for family business sustainability.
“Joining the Family Enterprise Institute is a natural step for us,” said Marc White, President of Steve White Auto Group. “Our business has always been about more than selling cars—it’s about serving families and building community. Becoming a Framing Family allows us to celebrate our legacy while also connecting with other business families across the Palmetto State who are working to preserve theirs. We see this as both a privilege and a responsibility to strengthen the larger family business community in South Carolina.”
