Mazda will also occupy half of the lobby with vehicle displays to create "a premium first impression." The new building will allow for a mobile, flexible and technologically advanced work environment for its employees.
Mazda became the occupant of its current location at 7755 Irvine Center Drive in October of 1987. Mazda relocated to Irvine from Compton, Calif., where it first established its North American headquarters in 1970.
Mazda North American Operations oversees the sales, marketing, parts and customer service support of Mazda vehicles in the U.S. and Mexico through nearly 700 dealers.
