Farelogix Inc. Relocates Headquarters to Miami-Dade County

MIAMI – The Beacon Council, Miami-Dade County’s official economic development partnership, is pleased to announce that Farelogix Inc., a leading provider of independent faring and multi-source distribution technology to the global travel industry, has relocated its corporate headquarters to Miami-Dade County from Toronto, Canada.

The Beacon Council assisted Farelogix in making its decision to relocate to Miami-Dade County by providing site selection and market research. Farelogix’s relocation will create 25 new jobs and generate a new capital investment of $250,000 for Miami-Dade.

“Moving our corporate headquarters to Miami provides us with the U.S. presence needed to quickly respond to the significant opportunities in the travel technology market,” said Jim Davidson, president and CEO of Farelogix. “We can also boost our recruiting efforts, since the south Florida area boasts a pool of top technology talent familiar with this industry.”

“Farelogix’s decision to relocate its corporate offices to Miami-Dade to improve its reach in the U.S. market is proof that Miami is not only a hub for business in Latin America, but throughout the Western Hemisphere,” said Frank Nero, President and CEO of the Beacon Council. “Our connectivity to most of the world’s major markets, our quality of life and diverse workforce have helped Miami-Dade emerge as one of the top choices for companies like Farelogix.”

Farelogix, which previously had a satellite office in Miami, will continue to maintain its operations in Toronto to serve its Canadian customers.
