Choyce Peterson, Inc. facilitated the transaction for Norseland, Inc. securing a new 11,353 square foot headquarters space at 301 Merritt 7. John Hannigan, Principal, and James Riffice, Associate, at Choyce Peterson represented Norseland in the deal.
Norseland, Inc. (www.norseland.com), a subsidiary of TINE SA, Norway's largest dairy cooperative, relocated its headquarters from Darien, CT to Merritt 7. The company is known for importing iconic Jarlsberg Cheese and premium specialty cheese brands.
Norseland's decision to relocate was driven by the comprehensive amenities offered by Merritt 7 Corporate Park. These include ample covered parking, multiple dining options including a Starbucks, a fitness center, conference rooms, a salon, car washing services, ATMs, on-site security, and a prime location. This Class A office complex boasts easy access to major highways (Merritt Parkway and I-95) and public transportation (Merritt 7 Metro North Train Station).
"We're thrilled to be moving into this premier office location," said Mr. Sean Moore, CEO and President of Norseland, Inc. “Thanks to John Hannigan and James Riffice for finding this modern workspace, ushering us into a new era of working and making it easy to improve the quality of life for Norseland employees."

In a competitive office market, their decision to move to Merritt 7 was a wise one. This long-term lease provides them with a state-of-the-art workspace, numerous amenities, and a convenient commute."
Merritt 7 Corporate Park’s ownership of Clarion Partners LLC and Marcus Partners was represented by JoAnn McGrath of Marcus Partners, and Jones Lang LaSalle’s Betsy Buckley, Ed Tonnessen, and Gil Ohls.
