Butler County Today

State Representative Jennifer Gross has announced the approval of two economic development projects in Butler County by the Ohio Tax Credit Authority (TCA).

The first project involves LetsGetChecked, Inc., a global healthcare company that provides at-home health testing kits for various health conditions. The TCA has approved a 1.44 percent, eight-year Job Creation Tax Credit to support the new location of the company in Fairfield. This initiative is expected to create 74 full-time-equivalent positions and generate more than $4.5 million in new annual payroll.

In the second project, SkyCell North America, Inc. has received a 1.207 percent, seven-year Job Creation Tax Credit to establish its new location in West Chester Township. This Swiss company, which specializes in temperature-controlled hybrid containers for pharmaceuticals, is anticipated to create 30 full-time-equivalent positions and bring in $2.1 million in new annual payroll.

Jennifer Gross emphasized the community benefits, stating, “Both of these projects will directly improve the health and wellbeing of our communities and state as a whole, while ensuring we remain up to date on developing healthcare technology and practices.”
