Peabody, MA According to Combined Properties, Inc., Miele, Inc. has signed a 6,163 s/f lease at Two Corporation Way, a first-class office building in Centennial Park.

Miele, Inc. is an award-winning German manufacturer known for producing high-end domestic appliances.

They intend to partner on multi-disciplinary projects spanning fields such as artificial intelligence, food & health technology, robotics, sensors, HMI, and cyber security to name just a few.

“The city of Peabody’s investments in revitalizing Centennial Park have provided the area with outstanding opportunity, and companies are taking notice. By highlighting the park’s most attractive features, like its outstanding location, direct highway access, and the industry-leading companies that are already rooted there, Centennial Park has immense benefits that growing businesses find attractive.” said Greg Regazzini, senior vice president and director of leasing at Combined Properties. “This sharpened focus on Centennial Park coupled with the specific features available at Two Corporation Way is bringing impressive companies such as Miele to the park and this building specifically.”

Miele joins fellow occupants Nortek, North Shore Physicians Group, Walden Behavioral Care, and the Warren Group at Two Corporation Way.
