Sophos's Plans For Future Growth Result In North American Headquarters Move

Lynnfield, MA - Sophos, a world leader in corporate anti-virus solutions, today announced that it is moving its North American corporate headquarters in order to accommodate the company's recent and planned meteoric growth.

"This is an important time in the history of Sophos North America," said David Hughes, president of Sophos, Inc. "Our 49% growth in market share last year indicates that our philosophy of combining best-of-breed anti-virus software, round-the-clock customer support and user education is working. Our new facility will give us the space to retain and attract quality personnel, as well as allow us to expand with the future needs of the anti-virus software market."

Located at 6 Kimball Lane, 4th Floor, Lynnfield, Massachusetts, Sophos's new North American headquarters occupies 20,267 square feet of office space, an increase of 12,267 over the company's previous Wakefield, Massachusetts location. The new telephone number is 781-973-0110 and the new fax number is 781-245-8620.

Sophos has also recently opened additional sales offices in Singapore and Milan, and construction has started on a state-of-the-art high-security research and development center, totaling over 150,000 square feet, at Sophos's HQ in Abingdon, UK.
