Nov 19, 2019The Henry County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously at its Nov. 5 regular meeting to approve a $598,335 contract for the purchase of firefighter daily wear for the Henry County Fire Department.
The previous contract expired and two vendors responded to the county’s request for bids. Addie Grace Designs LLC was the low bidder and received unanimous approval from the commissioner for a one-year agreement with two mutually agreed-upon renewals.
The company will provide 96 different items covering virtually everything that can possibly be worn by a member of the HCFD while on duty — shirts, pants, shoes, ties, gloves, patches, etc.
