Hazel Technologies, Inc. announced the opening of its new Chicago home, a state-of-the-art office and research space located at Tishman Speyer’s 320 North Sangamon in the Fulton Market neighborhood. More than 54,000 square feet, the two-floor office space will now house one of the largest agricultural technology R&D operations in Chicago and serve as headquarters for one of Chicago’s most exciting, fastest-growing companies.
The new space includes research and development laboratory space, a pilot lab, administrative functions and an 8,500 square-foot innovation lab.
Designed by global architecture and design firm, Perkins&Will, and built by Chicago-based, award-winning general contractor, Skender, the new space includes research and development laboratory space, a pilot lab, administrative functions and an 8,500 square-foot innovation lab. The flexible workplace offers variety and choice of space types for convenient access to all employees. Interior live vegetation is showcased and built into the millwork and furniture to bring in the color and warmth of nature while also reaffirming Hazel Technologies’ core vision focused on sustainable products and processes to reduce global food waste and make food more accessible and affordable.
“Hazel is proud to add another chapter to Chicago’s rich history of homegrown innovation,” said Hazel CEO and co-founder Aidan Mouat, who will speak May 26th at World Business Chicago’s Future of Food summit. “It wasn’t too long ago when we were Northwestern students with little more than a big idea and a lot of ambition. Today, Hazel Technologies is in 13 different countries, working with many of the world’s biggest food growers and suppliers. We’ve made incredible progress in the fight against global food waste. This new office space will help us grow, innovate and scale our mission to even greater heights.”
Hazel’s new Chicago headquarters follows the company’s recent opening of a new Fresno, CA research center and West Coast customer support office. Both moves come on the heels of Hazel’s $70 Million Series C fundraise.
