"Brevard was originally chosen as home for Southco Marine due to the central location and close proximity to numerous key customers and boat builders.  We chose to remain in Brevard for this reason, yet we were most certainly prejudiced by the praiseworthy assistance received from the EDC and its partners with regard to incentive assistance, workforce development support and training aid." 
-Polly Anderberg, Southco Marine
