Business Wire
Sprint (NYSE: S) today announced the establishment of its Great
Plains Region headquarters in Edina, Minnesota. The Great Plains
Region geographic area covers Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, North
Dakota, and South Dakota. It includes more than 100 company-owned
or Sprint-branded retail stores.
The new ONE Sprint organizational change announced earlier this
year divided operations into 18 regions across the country. Each
region is responsible for local sales, marketing, network
performance, customer experience, and community engagement.
“Bringing in local leadership allows us to be more responsive to
our customers and connected to their experiences,” explained
Michael McMahon, President of the new Great Plains Region. The new
headquarters at 7700 S. France Ave. in Edina, MN is home to the
region’s Retail, Indirect, Business Sales, Marketing, and
Operations teams.
The creation of the new headquarters comes amid recent
independent network studies showing Sprint shares first place rank
in call performance and network reliability in the Twin Cities and
Omaha. Analysis of independent third-party data also shows Sprint’s
delivery of average download data speeds ahead of the other major
carriers in the market. “More customers are flocking to Sprint to
take advantage of our LTEPlus network download speeds and our 50%
off competitor rate plans promotion1. We’re committed to provide a
great in-store experience, as well,” McMahon said. He also shared
that Sprint is in the midst of expanding its distribution, and
plans to add more than 200 jobs at branded stores in the region
over the next year.
