Featuring Verizon Wireless services, new store brings the latest mobile technology to southern Wisconsin residents

PORTAGE, Wis. May 9, 2014 – Local entrepreneurs Matthew Williams and Eric Reynolds are bringing the nation’s largest Verizon Wireless retail franchisor to Portage, Wisconsin, with the opening of a new Wireless Zone® store in the city. Located at Northridge Plaza, 2850 New Pinery Rd, Williams and Reynolds will offer area residents the hottest mobile devices and latest wireless plans utilizing Verizon’s super-fast 4G LTE network.

“We are very excited to bring a new business to the Portage community. Wireless Zone® stores in other towns in Wisconsin have been very popular, and we look forward to introducing it to people living in Portage,” said Williams. “Wireless Zone® stores are known for offering up-to-the minute Verizon Wireless mobile devices and plans, with great customer service, so we can’t wait to be able to offer all of that to more people.”

“We believe this store will be a great addition to the business community in Portage,” said Reynolds. “I look forward to being able to help Portage customers find the right phones, tablets, and plans to meet their personal, business, and family needs.”

Williams brings a background in the wireless industry to Wireless Zone® store ownership, with extensive knowledge of new technology and customer service. Reynolds left medical school to join Williams in opening the store, believing that it would be a right fit for him professionally and for the Portage community. The two were roommates while attending Morehead State University in Kentucky.
