Welcome to

Governor Charlie Crist exchanged ideas with African American Business owners today. About a dozen black leaders spoke with the governor at his mansion about promoting small business growth. Crist exchanged ideas with the group and told them why he thinks it’s a great time to do business in Florida.

“We have no state income tax. A significantly reduced now property taxes in Florida and a climate that nobody up North can match. The fact that we grow by about 700 people each day, that are going to help businesses across the board continue flourish. That is one of the greatest blessings of all,” said Crist.

Crist said he works with the NAACP and the United Negro College Fund to promote African American education and business growth.
