Richard Hagins, CEO/Owner of US&S, was selected as a 50 Most Influential People Award HALL OF FAME Honoree for Greenville after being recognized as one of Greenville’s Most Influential People Award for several years. The evaluation team interviewed Top Leaders across the area, looking for people who have not only impacted the industry sectors that they serve but also look to those who have contributed to their communities in a meaningful way.
Inductees were honored during an awards reception at Judson Mill in Greenville on Tuesday, January 16, 2024.
Hagins has served his country in the armed forces and continues to serve the business world and his community through his work with US&S.

In 2014, he was named South Carolina Veteran Entrepreneur of the Year by the U.S. Small Business Administration, and in 2019, Hagins was named Entrepreneur of the Year Southeast by Ernst & Young.
