CBRE Completes Consolidation and Relocation Project for TORIDOLL Holdings Head Office

CBRE announced today that it had completed a consolidation and relocation project for TORIDOLL Holdings Corporation's headquarters in September 2019. CBRE was appointed by TORIDOLL Holdings Corporation (hereinafter "TORIDOLL Holdings") in December 2017 to provide workplace consulting, project management, and facility management services.

The project consolidated the company's head office functions which were spread across four locations in Tokyo and Kobe City, and relocated them to Shibuya Solasta, a 21-story state-of-the-art office building completed in March 2019. TORIDOLL Holdings' new head office occupies the 19th and 20th floor with a total floorspace of approximately 1,000 tsubo.

CBRE was involved in the relocation project from its initial stages, providing workplace research, strategy development, and scheduling services to launch the project. Once off the ground, CBRE supported the project through cost and quality control, design, procurement, construction work, relocation management, and facility management. In addition to the space itself, CBRE also advised on the human side of the project – how to best implement activity-based working (e.g. change management) and leverage the new workplace to foster collaboration across departments and improve efficiencies. With the project now complete, CBRE is currently conducting a post-relocation evaluation. All in all, CBRE was not only involved across all stages of the project, but also, in various moving pieces.

"For this relocation project, we set a vision to reform our workplace, the symbol of our corporate brand, and make it more attractive," said Takaya Awata, President of TORIDOLL Holdings. "Our goal was to turn it into a place suited to be the headquarters of a global company, one that will lead the future of the food service industry. In addition to the space itself, we were also able to achieve this by implementing activity-based working which caters to diverse working styles. CBRE's expert team acted as our advisors on the front line, providing appropriate and rigorous cost and quality control. Thanks to them, we were able to create the office space we envisioned."

Ryohei Eguchi (Senior Project Manager, Project Management, Global Workplace Solutions, CBRE K.K.) commented, "Establishing the office that the client desired - one that is comfortable and pleasant to work in - required high-quality interiors. To meet the client's design and functionality expectations all while carefully managing costs, we had to regularly review our design proposals and estimates. In the end we were able to deliver an outcome that satisfied both the client's aesthetic and financial requirements. We will use this experience to further grow our relocation services and to meet clients' increasingly diverse and sophisticated needs."
