Mayor Greg Fischer and officials from Greater Louisville Inc. – the Metro Chamber of Commerce – saluted the company and its management for the tremendous growth the company has experienced since coming to Louisville in 2004.

“CompuCom’s expansion is the type of investment and job creation that I like to see in Louisville – highly-skilled, highly-technical and well-paid,” Fischer said. “The company is a great fit for our city.”
