The broader Connell Corporate Park campus will contain a fitness center and hotel and conference facilities, as well as an outdoor wooded area with features such as walking paths and streams, all in a location that is close to transport, the airport and other L'Oreal USA facilities.
"In every sense, L'Oreal USA is committed to being a great place to work for employees," said David Greenberg, Senior Vice President, Human Resources, L'Oreal USA.
"This new complex embodies that commitment; an outstanding corporate environment that is convenient, modern and represents the latest thinking in collaborative, team-oriented and sustainable office design."
In the development of this project, L'Oreal USA received strong support from the Connell Corporation, the Turner Construction Corporation, and also from both the State of New Jersey and the Township of Berkeley Heights.
"We welcome L'Oreal USA into the Berkeley Heights family," said David A. Cohen, Mayor of the Township of Berkeley Heights.
"We have made a determined effort to attract companies of the caliber of L'Oreal USA, and the company's decision to become part of our community will benefit the township and the residents of Berkeley Heights for years to come."
These New Jersey headquarters also further build on L'Oreal USA's long relationship with the state. This relationship began in 1953 when L'Oreal USA's forerunner, Cosmair Inc, opened in the United States to become the exclusive U.S. licensee for the L'Oreal Group.
Cosmair's founding headquarters were in Clark, New Jersey, with a staff of just twenty. Half a century later, L'Oreal USA now has manufacturing, distribution, research and development, and other operations in various New Jersey locations. The total number of L'Oreal USA employees in New Jersey now stands at over 2,800.
"The State of New Jersey is proud to support our strong and ongoing relationship with L'Oreal USA," said New Jersey State Senator Tom Kean Jr.
"We are delighted that L'Oreal USA has again made a further investment in a major corporate facility here. We look forward to an even more fruitful collaboration between the State of New Jersey and L'Oreal USA in the future."
