UNIFIED BUSINESS TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
“The City of Troy has a distinguished business-friendly attitude. Our company, UBT, purchased a building in Troy and completely redesigned it with “green” technology including geothermal wells, radiant heating, foam insulation, white PVC membrane roof technology, energy efficient lighting and electrical components, and recycled bamboo furniture. When we experienced obstacles with plumbing and our geothermal wells throughout the redesign, the City of Troy was fantastic in obtaining the pertinent historical data we needed to make the repairs and move our team into our new home. And to our pleasant surprise, the City of Troy followed up in person to verify that our construction was running smoothly so that we could safely operate our business once we settled in. We are extremely happy to have relocated to Troy and would highly recommend this city to any business looking for a new home!"
