Viking Magazine Service Embarks on Expansion Project

In an effort to double its payroll, Viking News Service is adding onto its offices in Minnesota and here in Ames.

Viking is a Burnsville-based customer service company that serves as a mediator between consumers and magazine publishers. Viking's offerings include 292 magazine titles, from "Vogue" to "Cat Fancy" to "Crappie World."

Viking moved its main office from Bloomington to Burnsville in 2010. In late June, the company announced that it had added another 5,000 square feet to the Burnsville location, as well as a complete remodel of their offices in Fridley and Ames. The Ames office was damaged in a  in October of 2011, requiring the remodel. The expansion project clears the way for more jobs and a bigger customer service center.
