Taking steps to open offices in rural areas: Zoho CEO

New Delhi: Zoho CEO Sridhar Vembu on Monday said the company is taking aggressive steps to open offices in rural areas. Vembu said this, even as the Chennai-based SAAS company opened another office in a rural area of Tamil Nadu.

The new campus launched in Tharuvai in Tirunelveli district, adds to other major centres in southern districts: Mathalamparai in Tenkasi, and Kappalur in Madurai.

“I love this new campus!” Zoho chief posted on social platform X, while noting the company’s expansion to the Kumbakonam area in Thanjavur district. The Cloud software major also has “a significant presence in Palladam near Coimbatore”.

“We have many smaller satellite offices too and I work out of a small satellite in a remote village. We are taking aggressive steps to direct our growth in Tamil Nadu towards rural offices so we don't further overcrowd Chennai,” Vembu said.
