Shoe Startup Atoms Establishes Brooklyn Navy Yard HQ
Shoe designer and manufacturer Atoms has opened its headquarters in the Brooklyn Navy Yard, following a recent 13,433-square-foot lease signing with the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation (BNYDC) at Building 77.
In addition to housing Atoms’ growth, marketing, engineering and operations teams, the seventh-floor space will also accommodate shipping of orders.
“The Yard is quickly becoming a hub for cutting-edge companies that provide an array of accessible, sustainable middle-class jobs, and Atoms is a perfect example,” said David Ehrenberg, president and CEO of BNYDC. “From the beginning, Atoms recognized that Building 77 provides an ideal home for companies that want the flexibility to grow, and we’re thrilled that they’ve joined our growing roster of fashion tenants.”
In August, the newly-launched Atoms announced it had raised $8.1 million in Series A financing. The investment will help Atoms continue to expand its operations. The company currently has 17 full-time employees.
