Henkel has announced that its new North American Consumer Goods headquarters in Stamford has been put into operation. Approximately 425 employees from the German FMCG major’s Beauty Care and Laundry & Home Care division moved into the new location last week.

“With the opening if our collaborative new space, it’s never been a more exciting time to be at Henkel,” said Jens-Martin Schwaerzler, President, Henkel Consumer Goods and General Manager, Laundry & Home Care, North America. “With our new North American Consumer Goods headquarters in Stamford, we’re poised for additional growth that will drive continued success in Connecticut and across North America.”

The new space spans 155,000 square feet spread over three floors and will additionally house administrative functions and, later this year, an R&D facility and Consumer Experience Center.
