A web design and digital marketing business has moved to downtown Warsaw.

Friday, the Kosciusko Chamber of Commerce had a ribbon-cutting ceremony for 1Eighty Digital, 120 E. Center St., Warsaw.

Kevin Hamstra, owner and web manager, said, “We’ve been in business since 2007, but I worked out of my home for many years as 1Eighty Design. And then when I hired Em (Rohrer) to start doing more digital marketing, I changed the name from 1Eighty Design to 1Eighty Digital.”

He said he decided to move to an office in downtown Warsaw because he needed a place to grow, hire people and add services.

“This gave us a place in central Warsaw to meet clients and just have a place where me and my clients could work,” Hamstra said.

His clients vary from small mom-and-pop stores to large ecommerce websites.

“Lots of different types of clients,” he said.

“We’re excited to be moved downtown and create marketing plans for small businesses based on their goals,” Hamstra said.

After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Mayor Joe Thallemer said, “We certainly want to thank you for making an investment of your business in our downtown area. … It’s nice that you can expand a little bit and grow your business and help us grow our downtown. We’re very proud of what we do down here, and you’re a huge part of it.”
