Prepares for Future with New Corporate HQ
“We’re Investing in our employees and the future of Champion Brands”
Jacksonville, FL -- Champion Brands, along with close to 100
guests, will celebrate the future, as they break ground on their new corporate
HQ tomorrow, April 24, 2018 at 9:00 am. “We want our employees to have pride in
their workplace, and create an environment that will foster collaboration,
teamwork and room to grow in the future. When I purchased Champion Brands in
1985, there were 80 employees – we now have 300+,” said Earl Benton, CEO
Champion Brands.
Notable Project Facts:
- 36,000 SF Tilt Wall Construction
- Solar Rooftop and LED Lighting Throughout
- Full Service Gym with Locker Rooms

Once the new HQ is completed (estimated Feb 2019), the
vacated office space will eventually be demolished, for a 40,000 SF warehouse
expansion. “We’re excited to be a part of Jacksonville’s continued growth,”
said Benton.
The groundbreaking will be held at 5520 Florida Mining
Boulevard South, Jacksonville, FL 32257 (off Shad Rd. and Florida Mining Blvd
