PGT moves 300 jobs to Venice

PGT Industries will relocate its door and manufacturing operations from Salisbury, N.C. to Venice. The move will bring all of the firm's manufacturing operations under one roof.

And Salisbury's pain is the Gulf Coast's gain: PGT will add 300 jobs in Venice to boost its manufacturing capabilities in Florida.

Efforts from the Sarasota County Economic Development Council played a role in CEO Rod Hershberger's decision to move the operations to Florida.
