Lighting Science Group Corporation® (OTCBB: LSCG) announced that it recently partnered with LED Source® and Hurricane Grill & Wings® to install energy-savings lighting in its restaurants.
With the help of the design team from LED Source®, a lighting solutions provider, the restaurant selected LED lighting as the perfect solution to meet all its lighting needs.
