该机构还将向佛罗里达州西北部投资2亿美元
PENSACOLA – Today, Governor Rick Scott announced that NAVY FEDERAL Credit Union (NFCU) plans to create 1,500 new jobs and invest $200 million in capital in the Northwest Florida region. This news comes less than a year after their announcement to create 640 jobs and invest $6.5 million in the area.
Governor Scott said, “This is an historic day for Pensacola families. Today’s news that Navy Federal will create 1,500 jobs for families is a huge win for the Sunshine State, and builds on the 640 jobs that were announced last year. With our efforts to cut taxes, pay down debt and keep the cost of living low, Florida’s job climate is improving each and every day. With more than 290,000 private-sector jobs created in the past two years, we’re creating a Florida that’s the number one place in the world to find a job and run a successful business, providing families with more opportunities to pursue the American Dream.”
“Through this expansion, Navy Federal promises to bring new, high paying jobs that diversify Northwest Florida’s economy,” said Senate President Don Gaetz (R-Niceville). “I am grateful for the commitment Governor Scott, state and local leaders have demonstrated to making our Northwest Florida communities whole as we continue to recover from the impacts of the oil spill.”
Following their August 2012 announcement, the credit union closed on 240 acres located adjacent to their existing campus. The additional property will allow the NFCU to construct two additional buildings to house the 1,500 new jobs announced today.
“Providing the best possible service to our members is our first priority. Our Pensacola expansion is key to supporting the credit union’s strong growth and an important way for us to continue delivering outstanding service,” said Cutler Dawson, president and CEO of the NFCU. “We’re proud to be a part of the economic growth for the area.”
8月份的扩张是第一个经济发展公告,其中包括来自行业招聘、保留和扩张基金资助计划(IRREF)的资金。
“未来五年,信用合作社将创造2000多个就业岗位。这种增长在很大程度上说明了该机构的成功和领导能力,”佛罗里达州商务部长、企业总裁兼首席执行官格雷·斯沃普(Gray Swoope)说。“这一宣布也表明了他们对我们的员工队伍和佛罗里达商业环境的信心。”betway官方开户
这家信用合作社在2012年被《财富》杂志评为美国100家最佳雇主之一,现在已经是它服务的第80个年头了。该机构去年的会员人数超过400万。
联邦海军在这个项目中的合作伙伴包括大彭萨科拉商会、埃斯坎比亚县、佛罗里达企业公司和西佛罗里达大学。
Navy Federal’s August 2012 announcement was the first economic development announcement to include funding from the Industry Recruitment, Retention& Expansion Fund Grant Program (IRREF), which is administered by the University of West Florida Office of Economic Development and Engagement. This program is available to eight coastal counties of Northwest Florida that were most affected by the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
Senator Don Gaetz authored S.B. 2156, of which the Oil Spill Recovery Act was an important component. The Oil Spill Recovery Act allots $10 million per year for each of three years to these eight Northwest Florida counties for the purposes of research and development, commercialization of research, economic diversification and job creation.
