NUTLEY, NJ — Retail giant Ralph Lauren and a huge wave of its employees have officially arrived in Nutley.
On Wednesday, the Ralph Lauren Corporation held a ribbon cutting for its new corporate office at ON3 on the Nutley/Clifton border, the redeveloped former home of Hoffmann-La Roche. The event saw attendees that included Gov. Phil Murphy.
Ralph Lauren received a 10-year, $33.1 million tax break from the New Jersey Economic Development Authority to move to its new location. About 225 new jobs – and more than 1,000 employees in total – were predicted to come along for the ride.
The new office also houses the Ralph Lauren Corp. Learning Center, a hub for learning and development courses for New York and New Jersey employees.
The Nutley campus is the third Ralph Lauren corporate office in the tri-state area, joining 601 W. 26th Street and global corporate headquarters 650 Madison Avenue in New York City.
