Mondelēz International to move Global HQ to downtown Chicago from April 2020
Fulton Market chosen as new long-term location with space for about 400 employees
Mondelēz International, Inc. has chosen the Fulton Market area in Downtown Chicago, Ill., as the future location of its global headquarters once its current building lease in Deerfield, Ill. expires in April 2020. The maker of Oreo cookies, belVita biscuits, and Triscuit crackers, has signed a long-term lease on a newly-constructed five-story office building at 905 West Fulton, in the heart of Chicago’s vibrant food district.
“We sought a location that reflects our new, dynamic and more consumer-centric growth culture, and which will make existing and future colleagues proud to be working at the global headquarters of a $26 billion dollar global snacking leader,” said chairman and chief executive of Mondelēz International, Dirk Van de Put. “Fulton Market is an exciting part of the City of Chicago that has acquired a well-deserved reputation for world-class food. We’re privileged to be part of this rapidly-developing scene.”
