DURHAM – With e-commerce booming in the wake of the pandemic, Spoonflower is scaling quickly.
In just the last 10 months, the Durham on-demand, digital printing company has tripled the size of its workforce – and is expecting to hire an additional 100 employees the coming year.
Its CEO Michael Jones, however, isn’t too worried about a talent crunch.
“The number of people moving to our area has increased dramatically,” he told WRAL TechWire. “We’re seeing a strong influx from across the United States. That’s made [hiring] even easier.”
Spoonflower employees working to meet surge in demand related to COVID-19.
The pandemic has triggered a tech migration. As remote working becomes the norm and people become disgruntled with the cost of living and high taxes in places like California and New York, local VCs and execs say the Triangle is among the top beneficiaries.
