PepperDash Opens Midtown Manhattan Office

August 1, 2006

PepperDash announced today that it had opened its new office in Manhattan. PepperDash's New York office is located on 47th Street between Broadway and 8th Ave., in the heart of Midtown, and will be locally managed by Sumanth Rayancha, Vice President of Technology.

"Having a Manhattan office obviously enables us to serve the needs of our New York City clients much more responsively" said Howard Nunes, President/CEO of PepperDash. "But with a base in Manhattan, we can also more readily support projects out to the Hamptons on Long Island, as well as northern New Jersey and southern Connecticut. While we will be able to supplement our New York office with Boston resources, we are very busy recruiting programmers for this location to ensure that we will be able to meet the programming needs of our rapidly growing list of New York and New Jersey clients."

PepperDash is based in Boston, with offices in Philadelphia and now New York. We provide "A Higher Level of Control"(TM) throughout the United States.
