Albert Lea

Albert Lea is the seat of Freeborn County, a southern Minnesota city built at the crossroads of Interstates 35 and 90, with a food-processing economy anchored by Mrs. Gerry's Kitchen, manufacturing at Lou-Rich and Innovance, strong agribusiness, and a recreation draw on Fountain Lake and the surrounding chain of lakes. It's a hardworking, increasingly diverse city that hosts the well-known Freeborn County Fair. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms — custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing — for the Albert Lea area's food-processing, manufacturing, agribusiness, logistics, and service businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania — distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
