Heimdall Power Finds new home for US HQ in Charlotte’s SouthEnd.

Charlotte, NC, September 2024 – Growing companies move fast—and so does Legacy Real Estate Advisors. On July 29th, Heimdall Power’s President of North American

operations, Brita Formato, reached out to Legacy Broker and Partner, Monte Ritchey https://www.legacycre.com/team/monte-ritchey/  to find a location for the company’s North American headquarters. Heimdall Power, a leading power technology company based in Norway with operations in nearly 20 countries, was fresh off a $25 million funding round and was eager to establish its presence in Charlotte’s South End, one of the city’s hottest commercial sub-markets.

Heimdall’s requirements were clear: they needed a space that could support their rapid growth, attract top talent, and offer easy access to industry partners. Legacy Real Estate Advisors quickly mobilized to deliver on those needs. In just seven weeks, Heimdall Power was fully operational in its new offices where they have established its new North American headquarters. The building at 214 West Tremont Avenue was developed by Vision Ventures. https://visionventures.net/about/

Monte Ritchey, Legacy Broker and Partner, commented on the successful transaction: “It was a pleasure to work with Heimdall Power in finding the ideal space that supports both their immediate needs and long-term growth. South End is the perfect fit, offering both vibrancy and accessibility.”

Heimdall’s new office is ideally located near key transportation hubs and provides a dynamic setting for attracting top-tier talent. Brita Osmundsvaag Formato, President of Heimdall Power North America, shared her excitement about the new location: “We carefully considered both the location and layout of our new headquarters. The space is ideally situated to attract talent, and its accessibility for visiting industry partners and colleagues was a priority.”

This expansion marks a major milestone in Heimdall Power’s North American operations. As the company continues to grow, they are actively hiring for several roles in the United States.

Congratulations to Heimdall Power on their successful move and thank you to Chapman Chastain of Ascent Real Estate Partners for representing the landlord.

Vaulted Oak – New brewery coming to East Charlotte!

 

The Echo Hills/Oakhurst brewery will serve regionally-inspired beers when it opens at 3726 Monroe Road. The former bank footprint will lend to a perfect social distancing setup in the era of COVID-19.

“Visitors can expect a low key atmosphere that plays off of the building’s past but never dives headfirst into the theme. We get it too; a brewery going into a bank …. The building is just a cool space architecturally and has a lot of potential even after we open and start operating,” founder Kiel Arrington told CharlotteFive. “We know that it’s not a historic building and that it’s not a treasured landmark but it was important to us that we keep the integrity of a lot of the building’s features.”

Arrington, Johnie Jones and Chuck Kistler are active partners and co-founders.

David Tschirhart partner at Legacy represented Vaulted Oak Brewery’ President Kiel Arrington on the tenant side.
