Industry leaders, workers meet with Kander to discuss ways to improve Missouri’s economy
Jefferson City, Mo. — Secretary of State Jason Kander continued his statewide tour of Missouri businesses in St. Joseph and Hamilton today with stops at Hillyard, Inc. and Missouri Star Quilt Company.
“I’m proud of the great businesses we have right here in Missouri,” Kander said. “I look forward to continuing to collaborate with workers and business leaders about ways to make it easier to do business in our great state.”
Hillyard, Inc. was established in 1907 and is a leading manufacturer of cleaning and hygiene products. The company’s innovative wood floor finishes and seals earned it a permanent exhibit in the Basketball Hall of Fame.
In September, Kander offered a bipartisan legislative proposal to reduce Missouri’s business filing fees to the overall lowest in the nation. Kander will continue his tour this month with stops in Cape Girardeau, St. Joseph and St. Louis.
