The Seam Expands, Moves Headquarters to Southwind Campus

MEMPHIS, Tenn., March 16, 2017 (Newswire.com) - The Seam, a commodities trading and agribusiness software provider, today announced it is expanding operations in the Memphis area and will move to 3400 Players Club Parkway, part of the Southwind Office Plaza.

"Our company continues to evolve, as technology increasingly becomes a vital part of our business strategy, and we're excited to make this move to a modern campus," said Mark Pryor, Chairman and CEO of The Seam. "To truly be successful in software, you have to understand the business problem through close collaboration.
