RICHFIELD, Ohio, April 24 /PRNewswire/ -- OEConnection LLC, a technology leader in parts exchange and analysis solutions for the automotive original equipment (OE) replacement parts business, today announced it has moved in to its newly constructed headquarters, at 4205 Highlander Parkway.
This is the second move in three years for OEConnection, a fast-growing technology company whose rapid and consistent growth has necessitated the move. The company's associate base has grown to more than 150 since the start up was formed in December 2000.
At 50,000 square feet, OEConnection's new building is more than twice as large as the company's former space, just down the street. OEConnection is leasing the building. The new facility can be expanded by an additional 20,000 square feet to accommodate future growth.
"I am very pleased with the growth of our business and the number of professional-level technology positions we have been able to create," said Chuck Rotuno, OEConnection president and CEO. "I fully expect our growth will continue at an impressive pace well into the future. As a recognized employer of choice through both the NorthCoast 99 and Best Employers in Ohio, I look forward to OEConnection playing an on-going role in the growth and retention of technology talent in northeast Ohio."
OEConnection invests in the region's technology future through partnerships with local colleges and universities to offer students internships. Later this month, the company is sponsoring a Baldwin-Wallace College computer programming contest for more than 100 area high school students.
The company plans an Open House to celebrate their new headquarters location in June.
