CONCORD, Mass., June 6, 2024 — Welch’s, an iconic leader in the fruit-based food and beverage industry, is thrilled to announce its relocation to Waltham, Massachusetts, slated for 2025.
After having its headquarters in Concord for over 40 years, Welch’s collaborated with Cushman & Wakefield to find office spaces that enhance operational efficiency and foster innovation and growth. The new headquarters will be located at Reservoir Place, 1601 Trapelo Road, a building owned by BXP.
The new Welch’s headquarters will encompass 60,000 square feet of office and lab space, marking the largest office relocation in the Boston suburbs in 2024. Reservoir Place offers easy accessibility via US 95 and high visibility to over 350,000 cars passing daily. This move underscores Welch’s commitment to creating a workspace that meets the evolving needs of its employees, attracts top talent, and embodies Welch’s bold and vibrant branding.
“Welch’s is at a pivotal point in our journey driven by ambitious growth and innovation goals,” said Trevor Bynum, President and CEO of Welch’s and National Grape Cooperative. “Moving into this new space in Waltham will offer unparalleled opportunities for our company and workforce and better position us to reach our desired state.”
“BXP is thrilled to welcome Welch’s and their associates to Reservoir Place,” said Bryan Koop, Executive Vice President for BXP’s Boston region. “Welch’s commitment to quality and family is an ideal match for Waltham’s robust community of diverse and innovative businesses.”
Welch’s has partnered with A/E/C solutions for project management, with the new facility designed and built by architecture and interior design firm SGA. The space will feature modern amenities, enhanced collaboration and meeting spaces, cutting-edge labs, and will qualify for LEED certification.
“Assisting Welch’s with its emergence from Concord to prominence on Waltham’s Route 128 prime business belt has been thrilling for us,” said Rich Simmons, Senior Director at A/E/C. “This site provides Welch’s a solid infrastructure to support its growing complex R&D/Lab programs while keeping sustainability at the forefront.”
Welch’s will begin renovations on the new space in Summer 2024, with the full relocation planned for Spring 2025.
