development, site selection, market analysis and overall industrial project development.
 
Mary P. Lilley

     Mary started Greenfield in 1998 after
17 years of varied experience at the
local and regional level in North
Carolina. She offers clients a variety of skills, including economic development
planning, client and project
management, strategic planning,
leadership development, and existing
industry program development.

 
Mary P. Lilley
     Her expertise in economic development at the local level and in coordinating federal/state/local assistance for major projects are essential to offering clients a complete approach to economic development projects.

She has also been a Board Member of a regional organization. These varied experiences give her unique insight into the demands on local economic development programs and staff – making her extremely successful at project negotiations at the local level.

Robin Hiott Spinks

     Robin Hiott Spinks has spent equal
time on all three sides of the economic
development business – as a

locations, as an owner buying industrial
properties, and as a site selection
consultant comparing communities for
industrial locations.

 
Mary P. Lilley
     Robin’s partnership in Greenfield is a return to consulting with a unique understanding of the needs of the customers.

site selection services – especially for heavy process
industries requiring substantial infrastructure,
advice to landowners who are considering large
industrial or commercial development projects,
strategic planning and marketing for economic
