Office Refit
Wolverine HQ
- The Challenge
Wolverine Worldwide, established in 1883, is a global marketer of branded footwear, apparel, and accessories. With an extensive global footprint and a diverse business model, Wolverine Worldwide represents numerous brands across multiple countries. Wolverine HQ, sought to relocate from their existing office space to a new floor in the same building. The primary goals of the project were to encourage employees to return to the office, create dedicated spaces for all their brands, and unify technology to enhance collaboration for staff and visitors.
- The Approach
Pioneer Group was engaged to provide Wolverine Worldwide with a complete office fit out of a new office space in London. Having been underwhelmed by the solution provided by a previous installer Wolverine turn to Pioneer Group because they wanted to work with a company that looked at “the way we work” from a holistic approach and would put together solutions that were easy to use, showcased their brands and encouraged employees back into the office. Pioneer worked with the Wolverine team to establish exactly what each space would be used for and what were the key requirements before putting together solutions that matched those requirements.
