An art retailer has relocated to a new head office in Birmingham city centre. Castle Fine Art has opened its new 10,000 sq ft HQ in the Mailbox complex directly opposite its own 6,000 sq ft gallery which launched in 2019.
It has moved from its previous base in Erdington, bringing 60 staff working across business functions such e-commerce, marketing and finance into the new home.
The new HQ includes collaborative workstations, breakout and leisure zones, a glass mezzanine and a podcast studio.
Castle Fine Art has a network of 37 galleries nationwide, including at the Mailbox and second Birmingham site within the ICC.
Managing director Ian Weatherby-Blythe said: "We're proud of our Birmingham heritage and committed to investing in the city. Our new HQ sits opposite our flagship gallery and is a space as ambitious as our business goals.
"We wanted to provide our teams with somewhere dynamic, inspirational and better suited to their working lives and I'm delighted with the end result.
"This is such an exciting time for the business. In addition to taking up more space at the Mailbox, we're recruiting across some of our core functions.
"We're also set to announce more exciting collaborations and collections from the artists that we work with."
Ruth Miley, senior asset manager with M7 Real Estate which operates the Mailbox, added: "We are delighted that Castle Fine Art has chosen Mailbox for its new head office, following the success of its flagship gallery."
The new head office for Castle Fine Art was designed by Coventry-based Three Sixty Commercial Interiors.
