After 22 years at their current location, Boston Chauffeur is excited to announce that they are relocating to a new facility on Route 1 in Peabody, Mass.
Boston Chauffeur President Mark Kini
“This has been a goal of mine for over a decade,” says Boston Chauffeur President Mark Kini. “This is when the real work begins. There’s a lot to do to make things Boston Chauffeur-ready.”
Boston Chauffeur relocates to new facility
The 17,800-square-foot property has room for more than 50 vehicles, giving the company plenty of opportunity to expand its fleet. Kini has plans to add a carwash to the new facility.
“This has been in the works for nine months. Finding a commercial building in this market has been a challenge. I feel like I found a needle in a haystack,” adds Kini.
However, what makes the owner/operator particularly enthusiastic is the location of the new headquarters. Route 1 South is a major thoroughfare north of Boston, traveled by tens of thousands of people every day. Kini says that the locale will offer a new visibility that will inevitably increase walk-in business for retail work.
Kini expects the site to be fully operational by early November.
