NATIONWIDE CALLS ON SAN ANTONIO

February 5, 2001

Nationwide Insurance, one of the country’s largest property-casualty insurers, will establish a national claim call center in San Antonio. The center will employ between 300 to 400 people once fully operational.

Nationwide has partnered with developer Darren Casey and is in the process of finalizing plans to renovate and occupy space in the Cinema Plaza, which is located near US Highway 281 North near Nakoma Street. It is the site of the former Nakoma Theater. Until the center becomes operational in mid-March, a temporary center has opened at Nationwide’s satellite office located at 8415 Datapoint Dr.
