Studio South Holdings in Talks with Puerto Rican Officials

GREENVILLE, SC - Bert Hesse, CEO of Studio South Holdings, announced last week that the company is evaluating several other locations for purpose-built studios. As an entertainment asset management company, Studio South is exploring an additional production campus in Puerto Rico.

“Our business model to combine the resources of a broad network of studios has attracted the attention of developers, film industry executives and government officials in Puerto Rico.

Global Studios in Greenville, South Carolina, is the latest in the worldwide network. The advantages of being part of a network of full-service studio complexes allows for service quality consistency and the sharing of: resources, marketing and contacts.
