McCormick Explores Relocating Corporate Headquarters From Sparks

Spice giant McCormick & Co. Inc. is considering moving its corporate headquarters from Sparks in northern Baltimore County to combine administrative functions in a single site elsewhere in Maryland or southern Pennsylvania, the company said Wednesday.

"It's about consolidating the administrative buildings in Hunt Valley," said Jim Lynn, a company spokesman. "We're in the early stages of a long term, multi-year project… to develop a more effective workplace. Our primary objectives are to increase employee collaboration, engagement and efficiency in a more open and centralized location."

The spice maker, which employs about 2,400 people in the state, houses its administrative offices in four buildings, including the headquarters at 18 Loveton Circle in Sparks and three buildings nearby on Schilling Circle in Hunt Valley. Those buildings also house the U.S. consumer products division, a wellness center and employment center and the U.S. industrial group.

#1 it's obvious they have detected a bit of administrative sprawl. The move likely has little to do with politics.

#2 are you guys advocating for corporate welfare to get them to stay. Its still your tax dollars being spent
