PHILADELPHIA—Women's specialty retailer Destination Maternity, which took $40 million in incentives to relocate operations here to New Jersey, says it expects it will close on the sale of its headquarters/distribution facility at 456 N. 5th St. by the end of the company's fiscal year 2014, which ends at the end of September.

In its recently released third quarter earnings report, the company states that renovations have begun on its 74,000-square-foot building Moorestown, NJ. Destination Maternity plans to move its Philadelphia-based corporate headquarters there in late 2014. The company's distribution operations will relocate to a 400,000-square-foot facility in Florence, NJ by mid-2015, according to the Philadelphia Business Journal.

Currently, Destination Maternity maintains its corporate headquarters on North 5th St. and its distribution facilities at the Philadelphia Navy Yard. The company got a 10-year benefits package from the Grow New Jersey Assistance Program worth $40 million.
