The global cosmetics company Avon has taken a lease of 1,200sqm office space at Euro Tower office building developed by Cascade Group at the junction between boulevards Barbu Vacaresacu and Lacul Tei in Bucharest, the adviser of the transaction, DTZ Echinox said.
Avon will move to the new premises on June 15 and will pay a rent of around €18/sqm/month, or €260,000/annum. Prior to the transaction, Avon’s headquarters was on Emil Pangratti Street, near Charles de Gaulle square.

Apart from the 1,200sqm space, Avon has also taken 14 parking spaces. Talks for choosing the new head office lasted six months, after DTZ Echinox was appointed as exclusive leasing agent for the cosmetics company in November 2009.

“We are glad that we have succeeded in proposing Avon a flexible and accessible accommodation solution, with extremely efficient energy consumption. DTZ Research shows that most companies are willing to invest in rental costs more than 75% of the savings made on maintenance costs by choosing a green building”, said Mihnea Serbanescu, general manager DTZ Echinox.

Euro Tower (photo) has 19 storeys and five underground parking levels, with 180 spaces. The built surface is 18,000 sqm of which 16,300 sqm lettable.
