Vendor Spotlight 🔦 Our City of Jacksonville Small & Emerging Businesses Program likes to recognize vendors going above and beyond for their clients and the City. Thank you to DAK Resources owner David Moorefield for the hard work he and his team do in finding jobs for local veterans. Mr. Moorefield and DAK Resources have been vendors with the JSEB for several years since opening their doors here in Jacksonville in 2007.
“I find the Jacksonville Small Emerging Business program was a very helpful program to a small business owner," said Moorefield. "The program offers subject matter experts and training in many functions of the business. Some of the training takes place at the Florida State College downtown campus. While under the JSEB some of the training is provided at no cost to the business owner. One of the Best benefits of JSEB is the ability to network with other businesses ranging from small, medium, and large. This open doors for businesses to team with a larger company to compete for contracts for the City of Jacksonville. Where can you go to get hands on training like this while growing your business?”
“Currently, I am working with BroadLeaf / Masonite door manufacturer who has taken us to 28 different sites throughout the United States providing personnel. Also, we are working with KBR as a government DoD contractor supporting the Navy and Marine Corps with new computer systems, and who has taken us to 8 different primary sites throughout the United States providing personnel. Additionally, we are working with KBR supporting the Marine Corps at Blount Island. Lastly, we are also working with Interline Brand / Home Depot providing security for their executive center and their distribution centers. “
“One of our best achievements that we’ve reached in our business is becoming a Prime DoD contractor for the second time! We are elated to have the opportunity to be providing services to the U.S. Air Force by supporting vehicle maintenance for their garrison and tactical vehicles. We were awarded a $4 million dollar contract! Furthermore, in July 2019 DAK resources took second place for the Top 50 fastest growing private companies in the Northern Florida.”
