Cheney Brothers exec talks hi-tech
PUNTA GORDA — It appears Charlotte County is making significant inroads in the technology field — so much so that the Suncoast Technology Forum has included it, along with Sarasota and Manatee counties, in its monthly meetings.
Of course, the much-anticipated construction of a new Cheney Brothers 250,000-square-foot food warehouse on 35 acres near the Punta Gorda Airport may have been an important factor in STF adding Charlotte County. The new distribution center is expected to employ about 600 people.
