Volusion, a leading provider of E-commerce solutions and services, announced today that it has expanded its operations by opening a new office in Austin, Texas. The new space marks Volusion’s regional expansion to Texas from its Simi Valley, California-based headquarters.

The growing demand for our e-commerce solutions reflects the unrivaled value that our products are providing to our growing customer base.”
