Whereas, PTR’s CEO and coowner, Mr. Josh Fiorini, in announcing this move demonstrates his understanding of and appreciation for the determination of the people of South Carolina and this State’s political leadership, both state and local, to provide awelcoming attitude to those firms seeking to locate here and grow their businesses in this State; and
Whereas, this single relocation by PTR Industries will bring to South Carolina 145 new jobs, paying excellent wages and will result in employment in this State of gunsmiths, engineers, toolmakers and machinists who will work with stateoftheart technology in PTR’s manufacturing process; and
Whereas, the members of the House of Representatives hope that PTR’s expression of confidence in the company’s future growth and prosperity in the Palmetto State will be but the first in a new wave of economic progress in this State as a result of the location here of similarly situated manufacturers of firearms, ammunition, and firearms accessories who come to see the respect and esteem that the people of this State have for them and those who invest in and work for these firms; and
Whereas, let these words of congratulations to PTR Industries and its CEO and coowner Mr. Josh Fiorini be further evidence that the people of South Carolina value the hard work and technical prowess of this and other such firms and that South Carolinians, by words and deeds, shall ensure that this State will be a place where these businesses are able to grow and prosper.
