Hertz moving worldwide headquarters to Estero, FL

Solution

The rental car giant's choice to move their worldwide headquarters (and more than 700 jobs) to south Florida has a lot to do with the rich data resources they found on PoweringFlorida.com and the Florida Power & Light (FPL) Resource Center. Crystal Stiles, FPL's Economic Development Project Manager, calls the Hertz case the "poster child for how PoweringFlorida.com can help local communities compete for investment." She adds that Brent Kettler at the Fort Meyers Regional Partnership/ Lee County Office of Economic Development, used PoweringFlorida.com and the FPL Resource Center to build the impressive business case for Hertz. Explains Crystal, "It took Brent understanding what a great resource this was and choosing to use it to facilitate the sale."
