retarus Inc. on an uninterrupted growth trajectory

As part of the Retarus Group, retarus Inc. has consistently recorded above-average growth over recent years—driven, for example, by an extremely successful new-customer business in the health and financial sectors. The conclusion of several substantial contracts with large international banks has played a particularly important part in this respect. As part of its expansion strategy, Retarus is also expanding its data center sites in Chicago and Ashburn, to account for the growing demand for local data processing services that conform to compliance regulations within the US.

Consulting expertise and high standards of service at a local level have always served as the basis for the company's success in the USA. To better support these requirements, the Retarus office footprint will grow from its original, New York City office, with the opening of a new center in Secaucus, New Jersey. This new location features state of the art facilities, new high tech monitoring, and a view of New York City. Continual strong growth over recent years made the expansion of the New Jersey site necessary. The new office in Secaucus also gives Retarus an opportunity to recruit new talent, with significant additions to headcount expected in the coming months.
