Provalus Celebrates Grand Opening of Technology Innovation Center in North Wilkesboro, North Carolina with Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony
March 13, 2026

Provalus hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony on March 3rd for the grand opening of our newest Center of Excellence in North Wilkesboro, NC, marking our second location in North Carolina.

 

When revitalizing our centers, we aim to pay tribute to those who were in the space before us. In North Wilkesboro, our building once housed the offices and printing operations of The Journal Patriot newspaper. We proudly display their signage that was a mainstay on the outside of the building for decades, in our main conference room. This, along with other small touches throughout the space were very well received by local leaders, business owners, and residents who joined us for site tours after the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

 

With over 100 team members in North Wilkesboro, Provalus is well ahead of our goal to create 150 new careers in Wilkes County over three years. These careers will have a multi-million-dollar impact on the local economy annually while fostering a dedicated workforce and fueling a new era of technology talent equipped to strengthen America’s future.

 

We appreciate the support from the Wilkes Chamber of Commerce and the entire Wilkes County community for welcoming us to this wonderful town. Special thanks to our speakers—North Wilkesboro Mayor Randy Huffman, Town Commissioner Andrew Palmer, Chamber of Commerce President Cindy Thompson, and NC State CIO Teena Piccione—for sharing their insights at the ceremony. We were also excited to host several partners attending our Stars & Stripes Summit this week at the grand opening.

 

We are looking forward to this next chapter of growth, partnership, and impact in North Carolina.

There's a word that gets thrown around a lot in the outsourcing industry: efficiency. Faster. Cheaper. Scaled. These are the metrics that dominate the conversation, and for good reason. Results matter. But somewhere along the way, a critical question got left behind. At what cost, and to whom? Provalus was built on a different premise. The best business outcomes and the most meaningful community impact are not in tension; They are, in fact, the same thing. Invest in people, places, and communities that surround them, and you don't sacrifice performance. You amplify it. That's what it means to be Anchored in America .
