Pensacola Chamber Working For Century Too

November 20, 2008

The Pensacola Bay Area Chamber of Commerce does not just work to promote growth in Pensacola, it is hard at work for Century too.

That was the message from Charles Wood, senior vice president for economic development for the chamber. He said the chamber had shown Century and Century locations to about a dozen potential businesses in the past year.

“You guys have some of the larger buildings that are available right now,” Wood told the Century Town Council. The Pensacola chamber features the Helicopter Technology building, the Alger-Sullivan Lumber building and the Century Industrial Park on their web site.

He said the chamber had brought about 2,000 jobs to Escambia County in the past year, with an average salary of $36,000 each.

“We are focusing on industries that are going to be high growth,” he said.
