Although we do business around the US, we call North Carolina home. NC was just ranked the #1 state for business in 2022 and 2023 by CNBC and we believe it! The state, and in particular the Wilmington area, is a great place to live and do work. Wilmington, where Vantaca is headquartered, really has something for everyone. Historic Downtown Wilmington runs along the Cape Fear River and offers dozens of shops, restaurants and live entertainment opportunities. If you want to spend some time outdoors, get some sun or go surfing or fishing, you can pick a spot along one of our beautiful beaches.
