US-based Goodyear Tire & Rubber held a topping ceremony for its new corporate and North American headquarters in Akron, recently. It says it is transitioning from its 85-year-old headquarters to a state-of-the-art campus.
The headquarters project is scheduled to be completed in early 2013. At that time, Goodyear will relocate about 2,000 associates into the building, which will serve as headquarters for the company’s global operations and its North American tyre business. The new building will connect with Goodyear’s existing Innovation Centre and serve as a central campus for the company in Akron. The Innovation Centre is currently home to more than 800 associates.(PRA)
