Bill Mitchell, Billiam Jeans
In 2009, Bill Mitchell began tailoring clothes in his parents basement on his mothers sewing machine. As he entered his final year at Clemson University, he gained a reputation for tailoring clothes and after lots of practice created a pair of jeans from scratch. Within one year, he had a waiting list of 400 people waiting for something unique.
Today he is the owner of Billiam Jeans with plans to put the Greenville textile industry back on the map.
