OAKLAND — A Garrett County company hatched in a local business incubator is spreading its wings.

County officials said Tuesday that GCC Technologies LLC is buying a 30,000-square-foot building near Oakland for its new headquarters.

They say the 5-year-old federal contractor bought the building from the county for about $1.2 million. That’s the same amount the county paid in December to buy the building from the Maryland Economic Development Corp.

The Cumberland Times-News reports that GCC has about 200 workers and offices in Washington; San Diego and Arlington, Va.

President Jim Bailey says he expects further growth after the company moves from its current headquarters in McHenry this fall.
