NAPLES, FL., – August 24, 2021 Ave Maria Development announces the opening of the new Loyola Professional Suites and two new office tenants in the Ave Maria Town Center.  The community is well-positioned to meet the needs of entrepreneurial residents and businesses as demand for office space is growing in popularity.

The open-air walkable Town Center spans over 100,000 square feet and serves as the central hub of the community with over 40 merchants including restaurants, shops, and services. “The continuing evolution of the Ave Maria Town Center, including the new office spaces, is one of the key drivers of the accelerated growth in the master-planned community,” comments Cee Cee Marinelli, director of development for Ave Maria.

The new Loyola Professional Suites will open September 2021 and include 13 executive suites with only one space remaining for lease.  Located on the second floor at 5072 Annunciation Circle, the suites range from 120 square feet to 250 square feet. The opening of the Loyola Professional Suites reinforces the need for physical offices as more people are working remotely and seeking a place to conduct professional business outside the home. The suites are currently leased by various types of businesses including: a marketing firm, an attorney, property management firm, logistics and an IT company. Amenities include a greeting lobby, two conference rooms, open spaces, lounge seating, and a community kitchen area. Heather Grey, Principal with G2 Studios, and designer of the new Loyola Suites comments, “Mid-century inspired furniture and urban accents with warm woods and charcoal coated fixtures create a pleasing, yet vibrant environment. We outfitted interior offices and rooms with glass windows and doors bringing light into the space.” 

Storad Label Company and the U.S. subsidiary of the Senzime Swedish corporation have announced plans to open offices and relocate to Ave Maria. Storad Label Company is a third-generation family-owned business in the label and packaging industry. Ave Maria resident, Andy Hord, oversees the day-to-day operations of Storad Label Company and opened the new location to reduce travel to his other locations up north. The Ave Maria office has printing machinery to handle proofing and small production runs.  Another new company relocating to the town is Swedish medical-device company, Senzime, with a focus on developing monitoring technologies for use during anesthesia/surgery to improve patient safety and reduce post-operative complications. “Our company is in a rapid expansion, and so we chose to move our U.S. Headquarters from downtown Naples to Ave Maria due to the available space for our expanding business, the ease of access from either Miami/Ft. Lauderdale or from Ft. Myers, affordability and the wonderful environment and amenities available in Ave Maria,” comments Chris Estes, President and General Manager, U.S. Operations for Senzime, Incorporated and Ave Maria resident.

The Ave Maria Town Center will also see two new office spaces open September 2021 on the ground floor of the First Florida Integrity Bank Building. Located at 5078 Pope John Paul II Boulevard, the First Florida Integrity Bank Building is a three-story, 29,000 square foot office building. The two office spaces range from 1,200 square feet to 1,500 square feet and are currently leased by The Ave Maria Town Professionals and the Ave Maria Parish Office. The Ave Maria Town Professionals encompass various type of resident owned businesses including Robert L. Klucik Jr., P.A., William E. Farley, CPA, and real estate broker Jim Carletta with 84 Real Estate. The Ave Maria Parish Office relocated from another unit in the Town Center. Additional office spaces are now available for lease on the second and third floors of the First Florida Integrity Bank Building.
