Amherst, New York, August 26, 2005 (Business Wire) - VITEC Solutions today announces the completion of five moves into new facilities throughout the Northeast, including its new corporate headquarters in the city of Amherst and its new main distribution center and field office in the city of Syracuse.

"We are excited about our new locations and about maintaining our corporate headquarters in Amherst," said Daniel Dolan, VITEC's president and chief executive officer.
