FORT MYERS, Fla. - Floridant -- Fort Myers Brewing Company has been announced as a finalist on GrowFL's "Companies to Watch" list, which honors high-performing, second-stage companies headquartered in Florida that demonstrate innovative business strategies and high growth potential.
Celebrating 10 years in business, Fort Myers Brewing is one of the largest craft brewers in the state with a 22,000-square-foot facility and signature line of award-winning brews and seltzers. The brewery was founded by Rob and Jen Whyte in 2013 as Lee County's first craft brewery, and its brews are now poured at 1,600 restaurant and retail locations across Florida.
"Being named a finalist for GrowFL's 'Companies to Watch' list is such a privilege, especially being one of a select few businesses from Southwest Florida," said Jen Whyte, founder and owner of Fort Myers Brewing. "This recognition shows how hard-working, dedicated and passionate our team is, and represents the impact and innovation that we strive to achieve every day."
