MEXICO CITY, July 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Today, SuccessFactors, Inc. (Nasdaq: SFSF) announced continued growth across the Latin America region, opening their first global office location in Mexico City.
"Our head of Latin America, Philip Carty, proved the value of the region, and Mexico specifically, by having the SuccessFactors team drive 120 customers total in Mexico alone," said Lars Dalgaard, founder and CEO, SuccessFactors. "When speaking to him in a July 7 conversation, he and one of our managers in Mexico had met three CEOs in the last 12 hours, all of whom had great interest in our Business Execution products."
After pioneering a new software category with the launch of Business Execution (BizX) Software in September of last year, SuccessFactors has continued to extend its vision of helping companies all over the world to bridge the gap between strategy and execution.
SuccessFactors experienced tremendous growth in Latin America last year, growing revenues 237 percent year-over-year from Q1 2009 to 2010. The Mexico City office location will enable SuccessFactors to extend its global vision of BizX and support its growing base of customers in the region. Currently, many Mexico-based companies leverage SuccessFactors to improve business alignment and people performance to drive maximum results, including NYCOMED, Supermercados Internacionales HEB, Grupo Industrial Saltillo and Gennomma Labs.
"Since opening up business in Mexico in early 2006, SuccessFactors has had unprecedented success within the Latin American and Caribbean markets, two key regions within our global BizX strategy," said Philip Carty, vice president of Eastern area sales, SuccessFactors. "We're extending our reach throughout these markets, particularly at the enterprise and mid-market level, and we're delivering on our promise to change how the world works and to achieve the number one business imperative: how companies execute."
