New Liebherr USA headquarters

The newly expanded Liebherr USA, Co. corporate headquarters is open in Newport News, Virginia. Costing $60m (around £45m), it features a 60,000ft² administrative building, a 82,000ft² workshop and training facility, a 92,000ft² parts distribution warehouse with retail operations, a guardhouse, and a one-story, 7,500ft² wash bay building. The five new buildings cover a 30-acre site and significantly increase Liebherr’s capability for expanded courses and in-house training, as well as for production, equipment preparation, product support, and parts distribution for the nine different product divisions that fall under the Liebherr USA, Co.’s umbrella.

The administration building is a four-story office building designed to enable seamless collaboration among team members. It features multiple technology laden training rooms with video conferencing capabilities, and flexible workspaces for different types of working. The fourth floor offers a variety of client-facing features and workspaces, as well as an executive conference area with two balconies.

The workshop houses a two-story training centre with classrooms for in-house dealers, dealer technicians, and customers who gain hands-on experience with real equipment on the warehouse training floor. Meanwhile, a large maintenance shop allows Liebherr staff to service cranes of all sizes, concrete pump trucks, and earth moving equipment such as bull dozers, excavators, and loaders.
