Florida First Sites is the first regional site certification program in the State of Florida to develop project-ready industrial sites. Each site undergoes a rigorous screening process developed by Quest Site Solutions, offering an objective, third-party analysis to ensure the sites are ready for development.
The program was launched by FPL, which serves more than 5.6 million customer accounts from Pensacola to Miami. Florida First Sites allows the region to be a competitive player in your site selection decisions. This program ensures that pre-work has been complete, taking the majority of the risk out of the site selection process.
