One cruise and travel group is charging full speed ahead in the U.S. market, unveiling a $100 million headquarters in Miami as it expands operations and bets big on Florida’s economy.
MSC Group held its ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new North American Cruise Division headquarters in downtown Miami on Monday, reinforcing a long-term commitment to business-friendly Florida.
MSC is a privately owned global transportation and cruise giant headquartered in Switzerland, and is continuing to expand its U.S. footprint. The $100 million investment alone will immediately relocate more than 400 employees, with an additional 1,500 jobs expected to be created over the next three years, according to an analysis by the Miami-Dade Beacon Council.
The new 130,000-square-foot office, occupying the entire seventh floor of Block 55 at Sawyer’s Walk, is projected to generate $300 million annually in recurring, direct economic impact for the county.
“MSC Group’s decision to establish its North American Cruise Division headquarters in Miami reflects the city’s unmatched position as a global gateway for trade, travel and maritime commerce,” recently-elected Miami Mayor Eileen Higgins said in a press release.
