The Kroger Co., the largest grocer by revenue in the U.S., has leased 43,000 square feet of office space at the Boca Raton Innovation Campus at 4800-5002 T-Rex Avenue in Boca Raton.
The company will move its office from 5400 Broken Sound Blvd. Northwest into BRIC’s 4700 building. The new office is about the same size, but it will have a more efficient layout with a large contiguous space, landlord Crocker Partners said.
Crocker Partners and Rialto Capital Management paid $179.3 million for the sprawling tech office complex, marking the biggest office sale in the tri-county region at that time since 2016. The 1.68-million-square-foot office park sits on 123 acres in Boca Raton near I-95. It was developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s by IBM as its North American Research and Development facility. IBM closed it in 1996.
The main function of the office is digital operations.
Mitchell Millowitz of Newmark Knight Frank (NKF) represented Kroger in the lease. Crocker was represented by VP Danielle Vennett and CBRE’s Jeff Kelly.
