Rick Scott Announces Marketing Company Moving from New Jersey to First Coast

On Thursday, Gov. Rick Scott announced that dtw Marketing Research Group Inc. is moving its corporate headquarters from New Jersey to Nassau County, bringing 40 new jobs and $2.1 million to the First Coast. dtw will start hiring in the fall.

The jobs being created by dtw Marketing Research Group will provide great opportunities for Florida families, Scott said. We are continuing to reduce burdensome regulations and restrictions, and will not stop until Florida has the best business climate in the nation. With more and more companies relocating their corporate headquarters to Florida, we can see its working.

We spent much of 2012 investigating new corporate locations, said Pamela Statile, the president of dtw Marketing Research Group. We were looking for business friendly states to move to, unlike that atmosphere in the Northeast. With a combination of the lifestyle here in Nassau County, the tax-friendly environment and the reasonable cost of living, the choice became a simple one.
