Business owner Mallea is the choice in House District
116 for Florida’s premier retail industry association
The Florida Retail Federation (FRF) PAC, the state’s premier trade association celebrating its 80th year of supporting Florida’s retailers, today announced its endorsement of Jose Mallea for the Florida House. Mallea, a Republican, is running for election in House District 116 in South Florida.
“As a brewer, accomplished small business owner, and someone who has signed the front of a paycheck, Jose is familiar with the changes that need to be made in order to strengthen and enhance Florida’s business community,” said FRF President/CEO R. Scott Shalley. “We’re eager to see the impact Jose will make as the representative of House District 116, as we work with him on supporting Sunshine State businesses and retailers.”
A native of Miami, Mallea is an accomplished business owner and job creator. Jose previously served in the George W. Bush White House and managed Marco Rubio’s first U.S. Senate campaign.
