Sugar Land officials approved a $1.3 million performance-based incentive to support the expansion of DeliverIt Group, a Sugar Land-based specialty pharmacy and healthcare provider. The family-owned company, which has been in Sugar Land since 2010, provides specialty pharmacy, infusion therapy and advanced clinical care services, officials said in a July 8 news release. What you need to know: The DeliverIt Group plans to invest nearly $11.9 million to develop a 60,000-square-foot FDA-registered, cGMP-compliant 503B outsourcing facility in Sugar Land Business Park to expand the company’s capabilities into advanced pharmaceutical manufacturing, per the release. The new project is expected to create 55 new jobs.
