TARRYTOWN-Quaker Foods & Beverages has signed a lease for 23,495 sf of office space at 660 White Plains Rd. here in a move that will bring as many as 100 workers to the complex by early 2002. The deal was reported by Reckson Realty Associates, the owner of the 265,000-sf office property located in the Route 119 corridor.

Quaker Foods & Beverages plans to open a Northeast Sales Office (Central Business Center) at its new Tarrytown location. The company expects to take occupancy in early 2002 and plans to have between 80 and 100 employees working out of the facility, according to Susan Schreiber, manger of public relations for Quaker Foods & Beverages, which is a subsidiary of PepsiCo of Purchase. The company is headquartered in Chicago.

She adds that the Northeast Sales Office will house Quaker Foods as well as Tropicana personnel. Quaker produces and distributes such products as Tropicana, Gatorade, Quaker Oats, Quaker rice cakes, Rice-A-Roni and Aunt Jemima syrups and mixes. Schreiber notes that the Tarrytown location will serve as an additional sales office for the company. Some personnel will be relocated to the Tarrytown office from other Northeast sales locations, Schreiber says. The company will occupy about half of the second floor of the 660 White Plains Rd. building, Reckson officials relate.
