News & Information from the City of Grandview Heights

Holbrook and Manter moved to an office space on Dublin Road in Grandview Heights in 2008, when the professional services firm acquired the Kirch Group.

Three years later, the accounting services firm has expanded to the new Grandview Yard development.

Business owners had previously made plans to move elsewhere, but thanks to a burgeoning relationship with the Grandview Chamber of Commerce, they decided to move to Grandview Yard instead. The firm also has offices in Dublin, Marion and Marysville. Holbrook and Manter benefits from being in Grandview Heights because of its close proximity to the metropolitan area and the fact that most of the company’s clients are in the area. With six owners and approximately 40 team members, H&M proudly serves not only its clients, but also the communities in the Tri-Village area.

Weber Associates

Weber Associates is a new marketing agency in Grandview that moved its headquarters from the Arena District to Grandview Yard in April. The company had outgrown its previous office space, and because owners were looking for an exciting and energetic environment to find new associates, they chose Grandview Heights.

“We liked the idea of becoming part of something new, dynamic and growing, while still being part of the downtown business community,” says Rae Schnuerer, Weber Associates’ office manager.

Weber discovered Grandview Yard after commissioning a list of recommendations from a commercial real estate consultant. Business First recently recognized Weber as one of this year’s Fast 50 growing companies in north central Ohio. Weber Associates will continue to appreciate and give back to the city and community that has gone out of its way to welcome them.

Zipline Logistics

Zipline Logistics is a nationwide, third-party logistics company that handles full outsource transportation for manufacturers and distributors.

Locally, the company works with Allied Mineral, and nationwide, it has around 7,000 contracts with trucking companies.

Owners moved their business from German Village to Grandview Heights in May this year to find more office space while staying close to the Downtown area. They have plans to keep growing and expanding, and the Chamber of Commerce has helped them in meeting those goals. Those reasons, along with being a company with very young employees, influenced them to move to Grandview.

“We’ll move up to 20 people in just a year, when we didn’t plan on hiring any for a while,” says Andrew Lynch, Zipline director, who is looking forward to even more growth in Grandview.
