C&W Brews Up 424,000-SF BTS for Keurig

BURLINGTON, MA-Green Mountain Coffee Roasters has leased 424,000 square feet in a build-to-suit at Gutierrez Co.’s Burlington Research Center here. The deal, in which GMCR was represented by Cushman & Wakefield, will relocate the coffee maker’s Keurig single-cup unit from three locations in the Boston area. It’s among the largest recent leases within the Greater Boston region and is believed to be the largest suburban BTS suit on record, according to C&W.

Keurig’s new campus will be located in the area of 63 South Ave in Burlington. The relocation from GMCR’s three existing Massachusetts facilities in Reading, Wakefield and Woburn is anticipated to take place in phases over the next several years starting in 2013. GMCR currently employs 519 in the Bay State.
