With our recent expansion to other market areas and with our plans for product growth within the Club, Bj’s role has become increasingly important over the years.”

GEVC sales offices have expanded from  locations in Southern California to Texas.  Additionally, the company has two contact centers, one in Santa Ana, CA and the other in Bedford, TX.  In the past five years the company has grown from 150 employees to over 500.
