The company has committed to create at least 50 to 100 jobs prior to the end of this year, with an additional 1,200 jobs spread over the next five years. The operation will be located in the former Stonecutter Mills Number 1, Spindale, which was recently acquired by Two Mile Properties. Two Mile Properties will begin up-fitting a portion of the building immediately for the communication center.
Don Thompson, CEO & Chairman of Sky Catcher Communications, stated, “It is only befitting that the new Sky America Communications Center, which represents today’s technology, will be housed in a facility that once represented the technology of another era.”
