Company continues to invest in Lansing and Grand Rapids with new office, increased personnel, data center access
LANSING, Mich. – June 12, 2017 – Everstream, a superregional fiber-based network service provider, today opened its Michigan regional office in downtown Lansing’s historic Knapp’s Centre, 300 S. Washington Sq. This move further solidifies Everstream’s commitment to growing the business, adding jobs and investing in the state’s economic vitality.
“Everstream has worked diligently to provide seamless service to our legacy customers throughout Michigan,” said Brett Lindsey, president and chief executive officer, Everstream. “We’ve quickly earned their respect as a partner along with the business of those who have chosen to join our network.”
Since entering the market in June 2016, Everstream has added 20 employees throughout Michigan, growing the technical, operations and sales groups to 54 total team members.
Everstream has seen this investment in personnel positively impact its bottom line, with $8 million in total contract value installed in the past 12 months.
“The Michigan team has truly hit the ground running to help position Everstream as a key player in our market,” said David White, regional sales manager for Michigan. “From sales to operations, the team has effectively communicated the value of Everstream’s fiber network and delivered on the company’s commitment to customer service.”
Everstream now will occupy more than 6,000 square feet of space on the first floor of Knapp’s Centre. Notably, the Lansing Network Operations Center has expanded the company’s ability to serve its customers 24/7. Everstream plans to host an open house for current and prospective customers, employees and partners on October 4.
