Genesco, Inc. formally opened its new headquarters in its hometown of Nashville, TN, on November 3.
The building spans 182,000 square feet at 535 Marriott Drive, the former Bridgestone Americas building off Elm Hill Pike. The company has occupied its former headquarters on Murfreesboro Road since 1965.
The office features seven floors supporting Genesco’s brands, including Journeys, Journeys Kidz, Johnston & Murphy, Levi’s footwear, Dockers footwear, and Bass footwear.
“We put a tremendous amount of thought into how our new offices should function post-pandemic with a focus on growth, innovation, collaborative, and creative workspaces,” said Mimi Vaughn, Genesco board chair, president and CEO, in a news release. “We knew we wanted to stay local as our commitment to Middle Tennessee is clear. Our new offices enable us to do our very best work and build on our success by growing and strengthening our position as a footwear-focused leader in both the footwear industry and our community.”
