Governor Rick Scott said, “I am proud to announce that Arthrex is continuing to expand in Florida and will be creating more than 500 new jobs for families in Collier County. More and more manufacturing companies are choosing to invest and create new opportunities in our state because of our work to cut taxes and make it easier for job creators to succeed. I look forward to seeing Arthrex’s continued growth as we work to make Florida first for jobs.”
Crystal Sircy, Executive Vice President/COO of Enterprise Florida, Inc., said, “Arthrex continues to be a powerful job creator for Southwest Florida and we are excited to see them expanding in our state again.

We are proud to be a partner with Arthrex as they continue to invest in Florida and provide job opportunities to many people in the Naples area.”

The ripple effect of Arthrex’s physical expansion and the jobs created contributes greatly to our region’s growing economic strength. This is a prime example of the fruits of having a robust business retention and expansion effort.”
