They will also create 88 new jobs in the area. So this will be an excellent economic addition to the economy!
From Area Development Magazine:
“Opening this eighth Ontic site is another exciting milestone in our growth. […] Florida was the natural choice for our expansion as it is already an MRO hub with ample skilled labor and a business-friendly environment, which also acts as a gateway to South American markets. I’m excited by this investment that will build and grow our MRO operations and enable us to become a benchmark for other MRO centers in the industry. […]
It was great to work with FPL, and the Greater Fort Lauderdale Alliance, when going through the location selection stage for our new center. The introduction to local agents, their engagement in gathering local economic data, and their support in understanding incentives available to Ontic aided our selection process and helped us make the right choices. This coupled with the availability of a qualified workforce, supported by Broward College and CareerSource Florida, clearly demonstrated why the City of Miramar has become a hub for aerospace and helped solidify our choice of Miramar for our important expansion.” […]
“Congratulations, Ontic, on your expansion to Florida and thank you for choosing Miramar and Broward County. Your decision underscores our community’s proud reputation as a premier destination for MRO business and we couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome you.”
