Fayetteville's economy is a vibrant mix of historic commerce and cutting-edge media production. The defining economic driver of the modern era is **Trilith Studios** (formerly Pinewood Atlanta Studios), one of the largest purpose-built movie studio complexes in North America, known heavily for its production of Marvel Cinematic Universe films. Adjacent to the studios is the **Town of Trilith**, a massive European-inspired live-work-play development housing startups, creative agencies, and local retail. Meanwhile, Fayetteville's historic downtown square remains a hub for independent boutiques, professional services, and local commerce. The city is also a retail center for Fayette County, with multiple shopping plazas along Highway 85.
