Goodwill buys headquarters

FORT MYERS — Goodwill Industries says it has agreed to buy a 126,000-square-foot building in Fort Myers for its new headquarters. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

The new building, located at 5100 Tice St., is four times larger than the nonprofit organization's current headquarters in north Fort Myers.

“Our agency has experienced exponential growth over the last five years,” says Tom Feurig, president and CEO of Goodwill, in a statement. “North Fort Myers has been our home since 1966, and we plan to maintain a presence in North Fort Myers.  We've made the most of the 30,000 square feet we have here, and we've just run out of opportunities to expand in our existing space.”
