LRG, Inc. Moves into New Support Center

The new 7,500 square foot facility accommodates and supports LRG's growing client base and staff.

LRG Inc, an independent manufacturer's rep firm serving the electronic security industry, is pleased to announce the relocation of its corporate offices and Support Center in Jasper, Texas. The new 7,500 square foot facility accommodates and supports LRG's growing client base and staff. It features a large dedicated demonstration and training room equipped with fiber connectivity for voice, data and remote streaming demos. The Support Center also includes a large warehouse, ideal for staging regional events needs and product rollouts.

LRG, which recently celebrated its 16th anniversary, has previously made its home in the 105-year-old Linton Lanier building in downtown Jasper. However, the larger Support Center is much better suited to meet the needs of LRG's growing business. "We are excited to transition to our new space, located at 227 Milam Street in Jasper Texas,” notes LRG Inc. president Chris Lanier. "It will offer our customers enhanced services and capabilities in a larger, more modern facility."

Recently, the Zenitel USA team, President, Jim Hoffpauir, Vice President of Sales, Peter Sandin and Regional Sales Leader, Paul Rux had the opportunity to visit and meet at the new LRG facility.

“During our meeting, there was no ‘rubbing of elbows’ at the table in this large, well-designed and contemporary facility,” said Peter Sandin, Vice President of Sales for Zenitel USA. “LRG’s facility certainly shows that everything is ‘bigger in Texas’ as featured by the large, dedicated demonstration and training room.” Furthermore, Sandin added “There is ample room for the LRG sales and support team to operate and serve the needs of the many customers they were talking to the day of our visit. We look forward to planning future visits to the new location for possible regional events and product rollouts at the invitation of LRG President Chris Lanier.”

For many years, LRG Inc. has enjoyed a close professional relationship with West Coast colleagues Thomasson Marketing Group, Inc. After their February visit to Jasper, the TMG President Jordan Thomasson, stated that “LRG is a company that has a very special culture. The new LRG HQ reflects the personality of the organization. When you walk in you feel the customer service and hospitality in the air and the building itself displays the attention to detail of every facet of their business and their commitment to excellence.”

With the acquisition of the Milam Street office, LRG is now ideally situated to continue its upward trajectory with a facility designed for growth. In addition to the Support Center, warehouse, and meeting/training venue, the second floor is home to a lounge area, two bedrooms and a kitchen for overnight business guests, as well as a rooftop patio for social events and gatherings.

It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
