SCS Service moves office
SCS Service has relocated its corporate office to Martin Luther King Junior Avenue South, Salisbury. The new office will be approximately two and half miles from its previous location on Old West Innes Street.
For SCS Service, a computer service firm, the new office space means improved and agile client service, new amenities for employees and room for growth.
“We are now able to position our entire client services department in the same area of the new building. We expect this to improve internal and external communication, and most importantly our speed in responding to clients’ technology needs.”
“We were fortunate to find such a nice space so close to our current office. We really wanted to limit the impact that relocation could have on our clients and our employees. I don’t think we could have found a better location for our team. Our new location and enhanced operational efficiencies will help us continue to grow and evolve to keep pace with our client’s needs, allowing us to provide exceptional value and superior service along the way,” said Christine Laikind, SCS Service president.
The new office is at 1204 Martin Luther King Junior Ave. S. All of SCS Service phone numbers will remain the same.
Established in 1996, SCS Service has been providing computer service and support for both personal and business needs in Salisbury and outlying areas.
