ZOCHNET RENOVATES OLD LEE CO. JAIL, OPENS NEW TRAINING CENTER

  

A Lee-County based Internet service provider has completed remodeling of the old Lee County Jail and Sheriff’s Office, and opened its new Training Center in downtown Giddings.

ZochNet, headquartered in Giddings, has announced the official opening of its Training Center at 444 South Main Street.

The two-story Training Center will be used to house visitors from across the state, who will be coming to Giddings to learn how to operate their own ZochNet dealership in their own counties.  The building’s second floor contains three bedrooms, while the first floor holds a full bathroom, kitchenette, and conference area.

The dealership will be a business opportunity to help assist future entrepreneurs in building their own ISP businesses.  The “dealers” will stay in the Training Center for one to three months as they learn how to install and service customers, while training on ZochNet’s proprietary customer service software, ticketing, and billing system.

ZochNet purchased the historic property in 2017 for just over $121,000.

The Training Center is located next to ZochNet’s future headquarters at 424 South Main Street.  Construction is expected to complete at that facility this summer.
