Kentwood Office Furniture hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the significant renovations of its Grand Rapids corporate headquarters and manufacturing facility.
GRAND RAPIDS, MICH. – Kentwood Office Furniture celebrated the official reopening of its Grand Rapids corporate headquarters and manufacturing facility with a ribbon-cutting ceremony performed by the Grand Rapids Area Chamber of Commerce. Representatives of the Chamber of Commerce participated in the event.
While Kentwood Office has locations all across the Midwest, the company got its start in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Kentwood Office was founded in 1976 and the location in Grand Rapids was the company’s first. In 2004, the company purchased an abandoned 130,000-square-foot plastic injection molding plant. During the pandemic, Kentwood Office transformed the facility, located at 3063 Breton Road SE, through several renovations and energy efficiency improvements.
“Our renovation is a great testament to the work we can do for clients and helps demonstrate a wide variety of post-pandemic work environments,” Kentwood Office President Bob Von Kaenel explained. “We turned a shell of a building into office space, a living showroom, and a manufacturing facility. It’s here that we can welcome clients to explore their needs, see how we work, and view dynamic displays of modern commercial furniture and interior architectural products.”
The facility also features a design center, where clients and designers can utilize a spacious work area and view samples from a wide range of manufacturers such as Trendway, Global, National, Humanscale, and HON. The corporate headquarters is also home to the company’s manufacturing facility, where the Kentwood Office Furniture EKOS systems are produced, as well as other Kentwood branded products.
