Sanford, FL., January 28, 2013 – Hernon Manufacturing, the innovator in adhesives, sealants and dispensing equipment, hosted Governor Rick Scott on Friday to not only highlight his commitment to eliminating sales taxes for investments on manufacturing equipment, but also congratulate the company on its growth and manufacturing job creation efforts.

Earlier this month Governor Scott announced his Building Up Florida Manufacturing Jobs proposal, intended to help small manufacturing business grow and offer more opportunities for Florida families.The governor is well known for his promise of 7 years, 700,000 jobs. It's a promise Mr. Scott plans to keep.
Touring Hernon Manufacturing, a maker of sealants and adhesives, the governor says removing the tax on new equipment purchases would go a long way towards creating jobs.
“When manufacturers purchase equipment in our state, they are investing in Florida for years to come. We want more manufacturers to move to Florida, and our existing manufacturing companies, like Hernon, to buy the equipment they need to grow and create more jobs to support Florida families,” said Governor Scott.
Hernon Manufacturing Inc., founded in the basement of Harry and Josef’s Arnon’s home in Queen’s New York, has been headquartered in Sanford, Florida since 1990.
“Smaller companies struggle to get the funds needed to purchase equipment, which in turn will enable them to hire more Floridians,” said President of Hernon, Harry Arnon. “I applaud Governor Scott for his Building Up Florida Manufacturing initiative and I hope the legislature will support it so more companies can move and expand here.”
Hernon'sowner say they would have saved between $15,000 and $20,000 during the expansion they made last year, if the tax were not in effect. They are holding up the next round of equipment purchases in the hope the governor's plan can pass the Legislature.
“Hernon Manufacturing is in the process of expanding and growing their business, and I look forward to the legislature supporting their efforts by eliminating the tax this coming session,” added Scott.
