Written on: March 24, 2025 by SprayTM

On March 19, Kenvue Inc.  held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for its new 290,000 sq ft global headquarters in Summit, NJ. The company—which marked the start of construction of its 100,000 sq ft state-of-the-art Science & Innovation Lab at a ceremony last April—has officially moved its headquarters from Skillman, NJ to Summit.

Locating its LEED Gold certified global headquarters in Summit offers Kenvue the opportunity to foster a collaborative environment where teams previously spread across seven geographic locations across the U.S. can come together and take advantage of the new spaces designed to accelerate innovation, and enhance consumer experiences:

  • The Insights Lab, a high-tech, multi-room experience is designed to transform how Kenvue develops, tests, and showcases its products. The Virtual Experience Room immerses users in a 270-degree digital retail environment, allowing real-time feedback on in-store execution.
  • The Sensory Lab enables rapid prototyping and consumer testing, ensuring products meet evolving consumer needs.
  • The Design Lab brings human-centered design to life through advanced 3D and 2D modeling.
  • At the heart of the headquarters, The Company Store offers a best-in-class shopping experience, turning every Kenvuer into a brand ambassador.

Joined by New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy, Summit Mayor Elizabeth Fagan, and other State and local officials, Kenvue CEO Thibaut Mongon underscored the company’s commitment to innovation in the State and delivering the future of consumer health. Kenvue also welcomed New Jersey-based charitable partners, including its newly announced local community partners, Bridges Outreach and GRACE.

“There is no better place to unlock the full potential of our iconic brands than in the state many of our brands have proudly called home for more than 135 years,” said Mongon.

“Our thoughtfully designed campus, brings together our iconic brands and our people under one roof, allowing us to innovate, drive growth and realize the extraordinary power of everyday care for more people in New Jersey and around the world.”

Added Governor Murphy, “I am thrilled to welcome Kenvue as they establish their home in Summit, cementing the company’s commitment to building the future of consumer health right here in the Garden State.”

Mayor Fagan called the opening of Kenvue’s new global headquarters a “significant milestone” for Summit. “Their commitment to innovation and excellence not only enriches our community but also positions Summit as a hub for cutting-edge advancements in consumer health. We are excited to welcome Kenvue to our city and look forward to the positive impact they will have on our residents and beyond.”

Touching on the importance of innovation, U.S. Rep. Tom Kean stated, “Boosting innovation at home is incredibly important and New Jersey’s reputation as a leader in this space continues to grow by welcoming Kenvue’s global headquarters and research hub to Summit. The cutting-edge work done here will benefit families across our country and fuel the local economy here in Union County.”
