Targets Cincinnati's high growth small and midsize business market.

Peak 10 Inc., an independent data center operator and managed services provider, today announced that it will open a new state-of-the-art data center facility in the Greater Cincinnati region. The 22,000-square-foot facility will be based in West Chester, Ohio.

Peak 10 Cincinnati is the company's third new market expansion in 2007, having completed two acquisitions earlier in the year. The company says in February, it entered the Richmond, Va. market and in August, the Atlanta, Ga. market. Concurrent with its new market entries, Peak 10 has deepened its commitment to existing markets with major capacity and infrastructure expansions in Raleigh and Charlotte, NC; Jacksonville, FL; and Nashville, TN.

"Peak 10's expansion into Cincinnati aligns with our business strategy of scaling our business through select new market development and consistent organic growth," said David Jones, president and chief executive officer of Peak 10. "Peak 10 will deliver world-class managed services and skilled, around-the-clock data center support services to high-growth, small-to-midsize businesses (SMBs) in the Greater Cincinnati and Dayton region. We have experienced tremendous success because of our local business focus and continued investment in each of the markets we serve. We have been in nearby Louisville, KY, for more than three years and currently have customers in Cincinnati; therefore, this was a natural expansion for our company."

"Our continued drive to enter new markets and expand in established ones is owed to our experienced and dedicated management team and their commitment to scale the business in a disciplined manner, leveraging our strong balance sheet and rising cash flow," said Kevin Brandon, Peak 10 board Chairman. "Peak 10 has positioned itself for continued growth and is the market leader in delivering high availability enterprise-class data center and managed services to SMBs."
