October 13, 2015
Aptos Inc., an independent spinoff from Epicor Software and formerly known as Epicor Retail Solutions, is setting up its global headquarters in Atlanta.
There are currently 122,000 stores using Aptos’ platform and more than 500 retail brands worldwide using the company’s technology.
"We’re very pleased to announce we’ve selected Atlanta as the global home for Aptos," said Noel Goggin, Aptos CEO stated in an announcement. "We feel the city offers a very vibrant business and technology community that will provide fertile ground for our next wave of growth and provide access to a strong, talented tech workforce."
The Atlanta headquarters will boost the company’s existing employee presence in the region. In November 2014 and January 2015, the company acquired retail analytics provider QuantiSense and eCommerce and order management vendor ShopVisible, both of which were headquartered in Atlanta. Aptos also has locations in Columbus, Ohio; Newburgh, New York; and Montreal.
Aptos has signed a lease for more than 17,000 square feet of commercial space at Resurgens Plaza, situated along East Paces Ferry Road in Buckhead. Initially, nearly 90 employees will be based at the headquarters and plans call for an employment of 15 to 20 percent by year end.
