Fire safety firm wins equity investment

NORTH PORT — North Port-based fire safety and hazard mitigation equipment company Frontline Equipment Technologies recently received $25,000 in an equity investment.

The investment is from Adrenaline Venture Fund, a Naples-based investment entity that seeds early stage companies.

“The seed funding will allow us to build inventory and market our products worldwide,” says Frontline Equipment Technologies founder and CEO Keith Grant in a statement. Grant is also a former firefighter.

Frontline's products include HydraSpear firefighting extensions with nozzles to keep firefighters away from flames and GatorFloss, a wire saw that cuts through metal.

Adrenaline Venture Fund launched in August 2016. According to a press release, it targets seed and early stage companies with potential for commercial success.

Frontline was the winner of the 2017 VenturePitch SWFL event in Punta Gorda.
