Des Moines, Iowa 鈥 December 14, 2020 鈥 萌翻导航, a leading provider of annuities and life insurance, recently celebrated the virtual ribbon cutting of its new headquarters in the 801 Grand office building in downtown Des Moines.

The move from 萌翻导航鈥檚 previous location at Two Ruan Center was necessary to accommodate the firm鈥檚 substantial growth in 2020. 萌翻导航 is on track to reach 175 new hires by the end of the year. The growth comes as sales continue to rise above industry averages.

The new space of over 80,000 square feet will double 萌翻导航鈥檚 office space and allow the firm to creatively rethink how employees will interact and collaborate with each other. To accommodate the increase of new hires, 801 Grand features 500 workstations with dozens of conference and focus rooms. The new headquarters allow for COVID-19 considerations, such as easy-to-clean workstations and glass dividing panels to increase wall heights, plus common areas with no fabrics and multiple hand sanitizing stations located strategically throughout the space.
