(Milwaukee, WI, February 29, 2012) – A year ago on February 28, 2011 Telcom & Data was granted a $42,000 loan from the Milwaukee Economic Development Corp. allowing the company to open its second location and generate business in the Bay View area.

After receiving the loan in late 2010 Telcom & Data scored an endorsement from the Mayor of Milwaukee, Tom Barrett encouraging the company to bring in new hires and operate the relocated business. Mayor Barrett said, “The city is proud to be a sponsor and proud to be a partner here with our loan, that will help grow this business even more in the city of Milwaukee.”

A year later, with measurably increased customer satisfaction and two locations, the company has seen a 30% growth increase since 2010. With planned growth for the next year Telcom & Data expects to do additional hiring in 2012.

President and founder of Telcom & Data Ricardo Trinidad states, “We are definitely committed to making a positive impact in the Milwaukee community and the local infrastructure through jobs and opportunities. Milwaukee has proven to be a place of growth and opportunities and that’s why we were attracted to expand our business there.”  The space alone compared to Chicago’s location was a fraction of the cost for the newly located business. The Telcom & Data’s 6,000 square foot office is located at 2625 South Greeley Street, Suite 200 in the heart of the Milwaukee Bay View area.

Trinidad advises, for potential candidates to check their website for future employment opportunities. He predicts adding 10 more positions to his 12-person team over the next 12 months.
