Air & Energy executive Stewart Moon Jr. isn’t the kind of entrepreneur who will turn on the out-of-the office message on his email when he’s on vacation. He prefers to know what’s happening and, if it warrants it, lend a hand toward a solution.
“I always want to be part of what’s going on in the business,” Moon says.
That dedication is the driving force behind Bradenton-based Air & Energy, the company Moon runs in conjunction with his mother, Trudy Moon. The younger Moon is a vice president, and his mom is president. Stewart Moon has basically been working at the firm since he was a kid. He has lead it through a major growth period the past decade, where the payroll, for one, has more than doubled, from 20 to people in 2010 to some 50 employees today.
