"This is a seminal moment in the continuing evolution of our company," said Jeffery R. Sears, PIRCH's CEO. "As we expand our presence in the U.S., and touch more and more lives along the way, we feel it's important to have a name that conveys why we exist — our purpose and our promise. "PIRCH" captures that, as it suggests an elevated experience, a place to branch out and discover new ways to 'feather your nest.' "

A variant of the word "perch", PIRCH is spelled with an "i", says Sears, "to make the name uniquely ours."

Prior to the official changeover, the company held discussions with key stakeholders in order to make the transition a smooth one. "The reception was overwhelmingly positive," observed Sears. "In fact, the general reaction was more or less 'it's about time!'"

PIRCH remains an independent, privately-held company with aggressive plans for national expansion over the next five years. "Despite the significant change we're embarking on," says Sears, "the most critical aspects of our company will stay the same. Our management team remains fully intact, and the way we conduct business — openly, honestly, respectfully, and joyfully —will never change."
