PM-International marked the official opening of its new Americas Headquarters in Sarasota, Florida with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. Sarasota is now one of PM-International’s network of continental hubs that already includes the Asia-Pacific Headquarters in Singapore, the European Headquarters in Speyer, Germany and the International Headquarters in Schengen, Luxembourg, and will serve partners and customers across North, Central and South America.
The new 50,000 square foot facility combines technology, office space and an in-house testing and quality assurance lab to serve as the strategic, manufacturing and logistics hub for the entire American continent. The facility represents a $22 million investment, and is in the first of four construction phases with the potential of scaling up to $500 million in retail sales per year.
“Our new headquarters for the Americas is a strong commitment to our distributors and the direct selling business model,” said Rolf Sorg, PM-International CEO & Founder. “We are investing in our future and our premium approach. Our headquarters concept is already successfully implemented in many of our markets worldwide, and in some, we are already the market leader. With [this] ribbon-cutting, we lay the foundation for our further North and South America growth. Our goal is clear and ambitious: Become a market leader in the Americas as well.”
The new Sarasota facility will create 100 new jobs in phase one, with expectations of 500 total, and will also contribute to regional and local revenue through partnerships with suppliers. The company has also acquired land surrounding the new facility, giving it the opportunity to expand to 188,000 square feet of warehouse with additional office and manufacturing areas that the company believes will better position it to access “a premium niche market potential of $11.69 billion across 5.55 million core customers.
“The Americas are entering a new era for PM-International,” said Stuart MacMillan, President of PM-International’s HQ Americas. “This headquarters is a place where innovation, leadership, and collaboration come together. It gives us the capacity and flexibility to support our growing network and deliver premium-quality products with unmatched speed and precision. Together, we’re ready to write the next chapter of success for PM in the Americas.”
