EDCO — Equipment Development Co., Frederick, Md., recently welcomed two public officials into its manufacturing headquarters.

State Sen. Ron Young (D-District 3) toured the facility and spoke about issues facing Maryland-based businesses. Young has introduced legislation that is friendly to American manufacturers.

Frederick Mayor Randy McClement (R) and members of the city’s board of aldermen also visited and learned more about the international manufacturing company sitting inside their city’s limits. The group presented EDCO with a certificate of recognition that reads in part, “In appreciation of your continued capital investment and contributions to Frederick’s business community.”

Both visits were part of EDCO’s efforts to better connect with its community and continually improve processes.
