Cargotec will move its premises to NCC’s We Land office building in Helsinki

NCC has signed a lease agreement with Cargotec, which will be moving its headquarters to the We Land office building, due to be completed next year in the Ruoholahti area of Helsinki. Cargotec plans to occupy about 2,000 square meters on We Land’s top floors.

We Land is a 14-floor building due to be completed in the spring of 2024 in the Ruoholahti area of Helsinki. It will have 18,000 square meters of brand-new office space. Its address is on Porkkalankatu street, which is also the location of Cargotec’s old headquarters.

– Responsibility and sustainability are at the center of Cargotec's strategy and operations, so they were naturally important criteria for the selection of our new Head Office. We also wanted to find premises that are easily accessible and support changing needs of work. At We Land, these principles come true, and we are looking forward to the completion of the premises, says Johanna Ihalainen, VP, Corporate Real Estate, Cargotec.
