1993-2018:
Orchid turns 25!
 

As a busy 2018 draws to a close, allow us a little self-indulgence as we celebrate the 25th anniversary of Orchid Systems' founding in 1993.

In this article, we reminisce about our evolution from those humble beginnings as a start-up Accpac Solution Provider, to where we are today: a software house focused solely on developing Sage 300 Add-ons, while supporting our network of over 400 business partners and 5000 customer sites in 60+ countries around the globe.
