Comments: New Avon has some new digs. Following the $435 million acquisition of the North American operation by Cerberus, an investment company (“old” Avon still holds 19.9% of the business), New Avon is moving from Midtown Manhattan to One Liberty Plaza in lower Manhattan. Avon will move approximately 400 employees into an approximately 91,000 square foot space on two floors of the 54-story tower. The company expects to make the switch later this summer.
“As we work to build the best social selling experience for Avon Representatives and consumers, it was important for us to find an emerging and high energy location to inspire our innovative, entrepreneurial culture,” said Scott White, CEO of New Avon LLC. “We were attracted to lower Manhattan because it is a vibrant and growing area, anchored by the Freedom Tower and the Westfield World Trade Center. This location will embody the Avon of the future.”
Avon’s headquarter employees represent all core enterprise functions, including marketing, merchandising, digital, legal, innovation, finance, human resources and supply chain. The new location will feature an open concept to support employee collaboration and innovation.
