Liberator Medical Expands Into New Building and Announces Expedited Hiring
Wednesday, Oct 14,2009, 7:51:18 PM Click:
Liberator Medical Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: LBMH) today announces the upcoming expansion of its wholly owned subsidiary Liberator Medical Supply. Liberator will increase its operations into an additional building and expedite hiring of previously announced jobs.
"There has been a significant increase in demand for our products and services," said Mark Libratore, founder and CEO of Liberator Medical Holdings. "We have filled our headquarters facility to capacity to keep up with this demand."
Liberator plans to lease Building 30 at Martin County Airport/Witham Field from Martin County. The building, an approximately 24K square foot facility, has been vacant since 2008. A formal public bid process for lease of the building was performed and Liberator's plan was approved by the Martin County Board of County Commissioners (BCC) during their meeting on October 13. County staff subsequently recommended to the BCC that Liberator be awarded the lease effective October 14.
The company announced plans in March 2009 to hire 200 new employees over a two year period. Since that announcement, 65 people have already been hired with 25 more hires during the month of October. Liberator anticipates reaching 200 new hires well ahead of March 2011 and could exceed those projections if growth continues at its current pace.
"Liberator's expansion is a winning situation for everyone," said Ron Bunch, Executive Director of the Business Development Board of Martin County. "The County will enjoy lease revenue on their building, the company is able to be efficient in its expansion, and more Research Coast residents can go to work."
"We greatly enjoy our relationship with Martin County and feel encouraged by their support of our business growth," said Mark Libratore. "We appreciate their willingness to work with us on our expansion, and for the assistance given by the BDB. The entire team made the process of locating a building and negotiating a fair lease much easier."
