Kalleo Technologies is a locally owned and operated information technology company that offers network
management solutions, cloud-based services, network monitoring, and help desk support to corporations. The
business was founded in 2004 by Roger Truitt and his sons Doug and John.
Kalleo has experienced a lot of growth recently, which opened up the need for additional space for their 57
employees, all of which are located within Paducah. They will be moving into the previous home of Tele-Tech
(TTEC) at 401 Kentucky Avenue. TTEC left the facility last October.
"TTEC operated a call center out of the building for five years. The building is already pre-wired and set up for
an IT company. Kalleo will be able to occupy the building with minimal re-configuration and keep the jobs in our
community. They're a perfect fit." said Bruce Wilcox, President of GPED.
GPED officials have been working with Kalleo on the possibility of occupying the facility for many months.
During that time Kalleo added seven new jobs, and they anticipate adding upwards of 50 more jobs in the near
future.
Wilcox said, "The City of Paducah's "Kick Start Program" made the transition into the new facility easy and
seamless while also putting a GPED asset to wrok."
Mayor Brandi Harless also commented on the move, "This is an exciting expansion for our community. Kalleo
offers our citizens the opportunity for a career in technology. We hope they continue to grow their business and
bring more modern economy jobs to Paducah."
McCracken County Judge Executive Craig Clymer says Kalleo is an outstanding partner for providing the
McCracken County government's IT consulting, engineering, and other services. According to Clymer, Kalleo
could have relocated their base operation anywhere in the U.S. but chose to stay local.
He said, "We greatly value their dedication and valuable contribution to our Community."
