After two years, Vans recently opened its first true global headquarters in Costa Mesa, California. Plans for the HQ were initially announced in 2015, following the company’s surpassing of the $2 billion USD revenue mark. Designed to accommodate the footwear label’s 500 plus employees, the three-floor location is an environmentally sustainable nod to Vans’ rich history. Additionally, striving for the LEED Platinum sustainability rating, the building features 4,000 solar panels which will provide 50 percent of the building’s energy needs. Check out Vans new Costa Mesa headquarters above and let us know what you think.
