We are told it’s okay to eat tomatoes again so we’re in a good mood anyway yes?
(Yes my tongue is planted firmly in cheek) Let’s see what has transpired this past week in business news.
First bit of good news involves Cleveland’s Parker Hannifin. They just received what was apparently their largest contract ever with an aerospace company. They will be making a different style control system for planes. The contract covers a ten year period and was worth $3.5 billion for the duration of the program. The contract is with Bombardier Aerospace. Not too shabby. You can read about it here in Crains and here in the Plain Dealer.
While we are talking planes, Crains also reports about new airline service into Hopkins in the form of Gulfstream Airlines. Do you want to take a trip to Greenbrier WV for some R & R? This is one of the places Gulfstream services, as well as the Chautauqua Valley in NY. There will be three round trips a day from Hopkins.
If the State of Ohio is going to help us recruit businesses to NE Ohio, it helps to have stable companies around the State making us money. The Columbus Dispatch shows why Honda in central Ohio is doing a robust business….which all makes sense since gasoline is eating us out of our wallets. They employ 15,000 workers in Marysville and East Liberty plants, for starters. As someone who has been browsing for used Honda’s, I can testify their value is only going up and up.
Looking for a job? I checked out Crain’s Cleveland job page and found that, based on their job listings, you might want to trek to Warren Ohio. The bulk of their listings today under the ‘general job’ category were in Warren. Everything from front desk clerk, sales reps, engineers, and even a chief of police for Warren. Literally over 30 jobs listed just in that category, and all but a few were in Warren. If you want to check out Crain’s job site go here.
I’ll sign out while Chicken Little is still napping. Peace Out – 3C
