If you have bought a book on Amazon then you can probably thank Livonia-based MessageWay for making that happen.

The technology firm developed the file-transfer technology used by large institutions, such as the U.S. Postal Service. This technology makes sure your order gets from your computer to the right people so the right items arrive at your front door.

The Livonia-based company got its start developing a file-transfer service for Chrysler and then jumped on the electronic commerce bandwagon in 1988, more than a decade before it was fashionable. Today their technology helps move files between buyers and sellers of every stripe via the Internet.

“It allows a company to manage all of that traffic,” says Greg Faubert, president and CEO of MessageWay.

And business has been growing as electronic traffic has gotten heavier and heavier, reaching 22 to 24 percent a year. Over the past 12 months it has added four new employees to its staff of 24.

The firm expects to grow another 33 percent this year, paving the way for three or four new hires. MesaageWay is also looking into establishing an internship program.
