Suffolk County on Thursday offered more than $400,000 in tax breaks over 10 years to keep a Hauppauge-based manufacturer of labels used in clinical drug trials from leaving for an out-of-state location with lower costs.
The board of the county’s Industrial Development Agency voted unanimously to grant preliminary approval for a tax-aid package for Citation Healthcare Labels LLC.
Citation was founded on Long Island 60 years ago and now wants to rent a second building in Hauppauge. That 23,000-square-foot facility, at 65 Engineers Rd., is adjacent to the company’s office and factory at 55 Engineers Rd.
