State Rep. Noreen Kokoruda (R-101) and State Rep. Vincent Candelora (R-86) recently toured Technical Manufacturing Corporation, a leading supplier of contract electronics manufacturing services to the aerospace and defense industry for mission-critical, high-reliability and harsh environment applications where reliability and continued performance is critical.
Reps. Kokoruda and Candelora took a tour of the facility in support of Connecticut Business & Industry Association’s (CBIA) CT20x17 business climate campaign. The CT20x17 business climate campaign is a broad-based non-partisan business and political effort that is focusing on making Connecticut a top 20 state in the country for business by 2017.
Fred Bonito, Vice-President of Technical Manufacturing Corporation, led the plant tour of the company’s manufacturing facility in Durham to discuss the goals of the CT20x17 program with respect to the electronics manufacturing industry sector.
“It’s businesses like TMC that make Connecticut a manufacturing and industrial powerhouse,” said Rep. Kokoruda
“State government needs to ensure it’s encouraging growth and not hurting it, especially with regards to being mindful of hazardous regulations and anti-business tax policies,” said Rep. Candelora.
“I am grateful to State Representatives Kokoruda and Candelora for their tireless work and support of local businesses. It’s important to develop and grow our manufacturing base here in Connecticut. By creating skilled and high-paying technology-based jobs in the electronics manufacturing industry we can ultimately enhance the state’s business climate ranking in the country,” said Fred Bonito.
Rep. Kokoruda, Rep. Candelora, and Bonito discussed the need for an addition to the current facility, which will allow TMC to hire more employees and additional services to be performed onsite. The preliminary plans this addition, would expand the current facility by 10,000 sq. feet and add 30 to 40 employees.
