7-Eleven, Starbucks, Withers Group moving HQ to Richmond in 2019

The corporate headquarters of 7-Eleven, Starbucks and the Withers Group is set to relocate from Mt Waverley to Richmond.

The move to Building 2 at PodCo and Terraplex’s 658 Church Street (pictured above) will come in 2019 after a leasing deal negotiated by Colliers International.

The 7-Eleven, Starbucks and Withers Group offices will move to 7,400 square metre vacated by Just Group, which has moved to St Kilda Road after 21 years in Richmond.

“It was our expectation that Just Group’s departure would pave the way for the building to be multi-tenanted over a number of floors but we are thrilled 7-Eleven, Starbucks and the Withers Group are moving into the whole building giving us the opportunity to undertake a full refurbishment of the asset over six levels and reposition the building for the next 20 years,” PodCo/Terraplex’s Anthony Wilson said.

Travis Myerscough one of the agents who negotiated the deal said 7-Eleven, Starbucks and the Withers Group would join a growing number of businesses gravitating towards Richmond from the outer suburbs including MYOB, Fonterra and Reece Plumbing.

“We’ve seen a shift in demand with the rag traders who have historically been the key occupiers in Cremorne, such as Just Group, Country Road and Colorado, now vacating and making way for an increasingly diverse mix with groups such as Disney, Tesla and Iveo Group recently moving into the area,” Myerscough said.
