Swisslog, a provider of warehouse automation and software, has announced it is opening a new Americas region headquarters, occupying 26,000 square feet in the Terraces in Perimeter Center.
According to a release by Swisslog, the new location will serve as the Swisslog regional headquarters for the Americas, strengthening the company’s footprint.
“This includes its facilities in Virginia, Ohio and Mexico, as well as field service engineers throughout the U.S.,” the release said.
The Terraces is a one million square-foot, two-building campus located in the Central Perimeter submarket. Anchor tenants include Alliant Health Solutions, Sicecam USA, and KW Commercial.
JLL handles the management and leasing on behalf of owner MetLife.
“We are thrilled to welcome Swisslog to Dunwoody and Perimeter,” Dunwoody Mayor Lynn Deutsch said. “Dunwoody’s skilled workforce and our central location in Metro Atlanta make us an ideal home for an expanding international company. Dunwoody will benefit from a new corporate partner as part of our growing logistics ecosystem.”
Sean Wallingford, recently named as the company’s president and CEO, said the move to Dunwoody will assist the company in expanding its customer base and portfolio.
“Atlanta has become a leading global center for the supply chain, home to distribution centers, offices and headquarters of some of the largest companies in the supply chain industry,” Wallingfor said. “Dunwoody enjoys a prime location at the center of Atlanta’s central perimeter business district and it offers great access to the airport.”
Swisslog’s robotics solutions and software include pallet stacker cranes, high-density shuttle systems, palletizers and management software.
The company also has a 24/7 customer support network available to its North American customers, including service technicians strategically located across the region, the release said.
