Copper Vine Hospitality Group Expands Under New Leadership

The announcement is the latest sign of momentum for Tempe's business community, which has drawn growing attention from investors across the Southwest.

"This is something our community has been asking for, and we're glad to finally see it come together," said James Anderson, founder in Tempe.

The company now employs roughly 36 people across its Arizona operations, with plans to keep hiring if growth holds through next year. Leadership says Tempe's talent pipeline was a deciding factor in choosing to expand locally rather than out of state.

"We're proud of what this means for Tempe and the people who live here." — James Anderson

Company leadership says an update on hiring and expansion plans is expected before the end of the year.
