Puma combines US workforce in new HQ
Germany-based sportswear brand Puma has brought together 450 employees from two former offices in Boston and Westford, Massachusetts, in a new location in Somerville.
The new US headquarters features 150,000 square feet of office space, a roof deck, art installations and a fitness centre.
Bob Philion, president of Puma North America, said: “To support Puma’s continued growth, fuelled in a large part by the North American market, we focused on creating a space that reflects our ‘Forever Faster’ mentality.
Adam Petrick, director of brand and marketing at Puma, added: “Operating in a product-driven industry, it’s crucial we bring together the best possible team of creative thinkers in a space that fosters diversity of thought and innovation.
“Being more deeply ingrained in such an important footwear design ecosystem provides a competitive advantage, bringing out the best in our current team, while allowing us to recruit new talent to support our continued growth.”
