Giant Eagle has said it plans to transition away from its fully remote corporate working model, and additionally confirmed that the retailer is exploring potential new headquarters, according to reporting from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
“We appreciate the high level of support our corporate team members have provided to our store and retail support center teams while working in a fully remote setting,” said Giant Eagle officials in a prepared statement. “We are excited for the potential to enhance collaboration by transitioning corporate team members to a hybrid in-office model in 2024.”
Company officials didn’t disclose exactly what is driving the search for new corporate offices, the Post-Gazette said.
“We are actively reviewing potential headquarters locations in and around Pittsburgh,” according to the Giant Eagle statement, which did not specify how much space the company would need.
In 2020 — months into the COVID-19 pandemic — the grocer chose not to renew its lease at a building in O’Hara, Pa., that previously served as its corporate center.
The year before, the grocery chain secured 23,000 square feet of office space in Lawrenceville, Pa. — a site that was set to be home to 150 current and new employees, according to reporting from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
The grocer has since kept that location operating as its corporate employees remained in remote work mode.
