DASCOM Jiangmen ChinaDASCOM® Americas, a recognized leader in complete business printing solutions and marketer of Tally® and Tally DASCOM® serial matrix, specialty, and thermal printers announced it has acquired 9.4 acres of land as a building site for its Americas’ headquarters in Augusta County.

“Virginia is honored to add the headquarters of DASCOM Americas to its roster of impressive companies that call the Commonwealth home,” said Governor Bob McDonnell. “Augusta County provides the right business environment, infrastructure and room to grow as the company considers a future expansion to move product assembly from China to the U.S. We warmly welcome DASCOM Americas to Augusta County and Virginia.”

“We are pleased that DASCOM Americas has chosen Augusta County as the new home for its US facility,” said Jeffrey A.
