Riddell is moving its corporate headquarters to Des Plaines, IL, about half a mile from its current offices in Rosemont.
The company signed a lease for a 27,000-square-foot office and lab space at 1700 W. Higgins Road. The new space includes two floors and approximately 5,000 more square feet than its current headquarters at Northwest Plaza in Rosemont.
The extra space will enable the company to expand its equipment testing facility, including a testing lab and connected work space. While other nearby locations were considered, Des Plaines was chosen for the benefit of existing employees and its proximity to Chicago and O’Hare International Airport. Its 58 headquarter employees are expected to move by July 1.
Riddell is a subsidiary brand of BRG Sports, which is owned by Fenway Partners.
