ACCO Takes Full Suburban Office for New HQ

LONG GROVE, IL-The office products supplier is engaged in an $860 million merger with MeadWestvaco, and needs more space than it has now in Lincolnshire, IL.

By Robert Carr | Updated on January 12, 2012

LONG GROVE, IL-ACCO Brands Corp., which is engaged in an $860 million takeover of MeadWestvaco Corp.’s Consumer & Office Products business, has announced it has signed a lease to move to a three-story office building here as its new headquarters. The company is expanding by taking the entire 189,092-square-foot Four Corporate Drive building at Kemper Lakes Business Center.

The firm was in 400 Tower Pkwy. in Lincolnshire, IL, and is expanding by 20,000-square-feet in this new lease. An ACCO spokesman tells GlobeSt.com that the merger with MeadWestvaco is fueling the move. “We’ve done well despite the recession,” he says. “With the acquisition, we’re going to be a much larger company. Our lease was up in 2013, and this new headquarters property is convenient for our employee base, and has enough raw space to configure to our current needs, as well as a significant package of amenities not offered at our current location.”
