COLLIER COUNTY, Fla.- Governor Rick Scott visited a manufacturing company in Southwest Florida on Thursday.

Gov. Scott was at Azimuth Technology to highlight job growth in the area. Over the past three years the company has provided 90 good paying jobs and they’re about to open a second facility.

“They’re gonna add more space which will be more employees, so it’s also great that they hire veterans. As you know, we’ve really made sure this is the most veteran friendly state in the nation,”said Scott.

In addition to touring the facility, the governor honored eight employees with his veterans service award.
