Zünd America Breaks Ground on New North American Headquarters
The new 50,000-square-foot building will more than double the company's current space.
Zünd, a manufacturer of digital table cutting equipment and supplies, announces the groundbreaking for its new North American headquarters being built at Drexel Town Square in Oak Creek, Wisconsin, just outside Milwaukee.
The new headquarters will include offices as well as spaces for product display, customer and employee training, and warehousing for their product and miscellaneous materials that support the installation and servicing of Zünd equipment.
Since 2004, when it was first established, Zünd America’s Franklin, Wisconsin, office has grown from five employees and 10,000 square feet to nearly 80 employees and more than 25,000 square feet. The new headquarters will more than double that space and allow it to continue to support the company’s thousands of customers all over the U.S. and Canada.
“With our new building of more than 50,000 square feet in Oak Creek, we will have the facilities and resources to continue to provide our customers with the best possible sales and service support and keep growing for many years to come,” says Oliver Zünd, Zünd Systemtechnik AG‘s CEO and president of Zund America, commenting at the groundbreaking ceremony. “With the completion of our new headquarters, we are very excited to further contribute to the Oak Creek community by not only attracting many visitors from all over the U.S. and Canada, but by also supporting local programs such as the Oak Creek High School Robotics team and being great corporate neighbors to The Drexel Town Square development.”
The building was designed by Graf & Tolosa Inc. of San Francisco with Eppstein Uhen Architects (EUA), headquartered in Milwaukee’s Historic Third Ward, serving as the project architect. Hunzinger Construction Co. is the construction manager on the project. The design team also includes Ring & DuChateau LLP as MEP (mechanical, electrical and plumbing) designers; Kapur & Associates Inc. as civil engineers; and Pierce Engineers serving as the structural engineer.
The project is set to be completed in September of 2019.
