Spared from any major flooding impact, Puryear IT is offering to help Baton Rouge businesses that have not been so lucky.

Puryear this morning began offering up its facilities at 1779 Government St. as a temporary command center for displaced businesses in need of a stable headquarters to regroup.

“Whether or not you’re currently using us as your IT provider doesn’t matter,” says Puryear CEO Dustin Puryear. “It doesn’t even matter if you’re using one of our competitors, we don’t care. If you need a stable and professional home-base, reach out.”

The facilities will be open to business owners from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., Puryear says, during which they will be able to use conference rooms, internet and power to make any necessary phone calls to insurance providers and make other post-flood arrangements.

A dozen spots are available, Puryear says, and they will be given out on an as-needed basis until space runs out.

“If you’re totally at a loss, don’t know what to do and need help please don’t hesitate to get in touch,” Puryear says. “We care about this business community and know that each and every person we help would have done the exact same for us.”

Interested business owners are asked to call Puryear in advance at (225) 706-8414, ext. 1112, or email him at dpuryear@puryear-it.com to ensure space is available.
