Innovative and rapidly-growing carbon management firm Eco Global Markets are throwing in their lot with one of the most ecologically sustainable developments in the City, by taking office space in Heron Tower. With a mention already published in City A.M, it looks like a wise move.
Eco Global Markets recently launched a new corporate product, the success of which has prompted their move from No. 1 Cornhill. The company, which sells carbon credits as investments and also helps businesses and individuals to become carbon neutral, has grand designs to grow into their new office space.
Eco Global Markets Director, Robert O’Brien, said: “We are absolutely delighted to be moving in to Heron Tower. The BREEAM rating and sustainability of the building were huge factors for our choice. There is a fantastic aquarium in reception with 1200 fish and 6 sharks and our floor is truly stunning with a panoramic view of the whole of London!”
Heron Tower was recently awarded a BREEAM rating for its visionary commitment to sustainability. BREEAM addresses environmental and sustainability issues, providing ratings to designers and developers who can prove their environmental credentials. Choosing a BREEAM rated development was a priority for Eco Global Markets, and Heron Tower looks like the perfect location for the business to grow.
A visionary development in the City of London, Heron Tower will be the tallest building in the city at 202 metres. A stone’s throw from Liverpool Street, one of the largest commuter stations in London, Heron Tower is poised to become the City location in 2011. Eco Global Markets should feel right at home. O’Brien continued: “The successful launch of our corporate product has meant that we have outgrown our current location far sooner than we originally planned and lead to us taking space in this dynamic new building. Our expansion has meant that we are almost tripling our operation immediately with room for further growth over the next 5 years. We think it’s a great match and are more than excited about our future in Heron Tower.”
