Quality King Distributors Inc. was given a $675,000 state grant for the recent expansion of its Bellport headquarters, Newsday reported. Quality King, which sells health and beauty products to retailers, spent $15 million to expand its headquarters with 10,000 square feet of office space and by adding solar panels to its roof. The expansion was completed last year, but the company only got the state funds Thursday after filling the 47 new jobs it promised the state it’d create. The Brookhaven Town Industrial Development Agency also gave the company tax breaks for the expansion and to refinance its mortgage. [Newsday]
