We are committed to our presence in New Mexico and are excited to offer best in class point-of-sale technology globally.”
Keeping a strong downtown presence for the company is going to continue to bolster the Albuquerque economic environment.

I’m proud to help them usher in these new offices and can’t wait to see what they do next.”
“I am so grateful that Lavu has chosen to keep their world-class operations right here in the heart of downtown Albuquerque,” stated Mayor Tim Keller. “They are a proven leader in the industry and have provided numerous job opportunities in the tech field for Burqueños. With incredible growth in such a short amount of time, we are looking forward to what they do next.”
