The company is doubling its office space, leasing an extra 7,000 square feet at Village Business Park.
Terms of the lease expansion were not disclosed by Stanton Road Capital, which owns the property.
Pulmuone first expanded to the business park in 2021. It’s new space now totals 13,725 square feet, allowing the company to add to its administrative staff.
