Client Objectives

Staffmark Group is one of the largest staffing companies in the United States and has been providing outstanding service for over 40 years.

A proud member of RGF Staffing, Staffmark Group operates in over 400 locations, providing staffing solutions across a comprehensive range of disciplines, servicing Fortune 500, high-profiled clients across numerous industries. For over eight (8) years, Staffmark Group has partnered with Cresa to attain annual KPI’s in support of their national portfolio strategy, including expansions into new markets, business growth via acquisitions and location renewals.

In early 2022, while monitoring upcoming lease expirations 12 to 24 months in advance, discussions began to assess and execute a strategic real estate business plan for Staffmark Group’s Cincinnati Headquarters.

Results

As companies across the U.S. were implementing “Return to Office” initiatives, Staffmark Group’s goal for its HQ was to embrace its own employee work trends, and offer an enhanced, inviting and fun workplace experience. Employee commutes, ease of access to the property, area restaurants, hotels and entertainment, and crime were all considered.

The process began by exploring multiple renewal and relocation options within the City of Cincinnati and throughout the outer market. Cresa worked in tandem with Staffmark Group to locate viable options to meet both the flight to quality and financial expectations. While analyzing Staffmark Group’s total occupancy, Cresa vetted direct and sublease options to gain optimal leverage.

After touring multiple properties across the market, it was determine to remain in downtown Cincinnati and take advantage of a prime, long-term sublease opportunity, three blocks from Staffmark Group’s current location. Staffmark Group decreased its footprint, upgraded the quality of its HQ, lower its occupancy costs, and maintained access between both the Reds and Bengals Stadiums in downtown Cincinnati.
Alex Coe and the Cresa team were able to understand our needs, cut through the noise of the industry, and find us a solution that was better than we could have designed ourselves. Professional, quick to respond, and a superior advocate for us as a client best describe the relationship we built with Cresa in a matter of days.
