$247M Fort Myers contractor moves Sarasota-area office

A Fort Myers contractor is cutting the ribbon June 9 on its new facility in the Sarasota-Manatee area. B&I Contractors, which specializes in electrical, mechanical and plumbing systems for commercial, industrial and institutional clients, reports it recently relocated its operations so that it could expand.

The new B&I Contractors office is at 7805 24th Court E., near Tallevast Road and U.S. 301. There, the company is leasing the property, which is about 1.5 miles south of its previous location at 6638 26th Court E. B&I Contractors owned that building.

Moving “comes in direct response to rising demand, new market opportunities and a commitment to supporting the region’s evolving infrastructure and service needs,” the company says in a statement.
