Our Headquarters

At Bridgestone Americas, our headquarters is more than a building. We’re creating a Premier Place to Work – a place where our teammates can learn, collaborate, grow and build fulfilling careers in a fast-paced, exciting environment.

Headquarters

Bridgestone Americas (BSA) moved its primary operations from Akron, Ohio to Nashville, Tenn., in 1992 following Bridgestone Corporations’s merger with Firestone Tire & Rubber Company. Originally, the company’s corporate, tire marketing and sales functions were located in two separate buildings. In years following, two additional offices were opened: one housing manufacturing, engineering and quality, and another for information technology. In 2003, the four locations were consolidated into our current headquarters facility, located on Marriott Drive near Nashville International Airport.

Better Together

In 2017, our headquarters will undergo another significant change: we will move to a brand new, built-to-specification facility in downtown Nashville. Located at the intersection of Fourth Avenue and Demonbreun Street, the building will be home to 1,700 teammates, with 600 of those positions new to Nashville. Our new building will allow us to bring together – for the first time – four of the company’s key business units into a combined headquarters. Teammates will be able to work more closely together, share ideas and develop even better products and services for our customers.

Building for the Future

We’re excited about our new downtown location. We’re confident our headquarters and the teammates located there will add to what already is a thriving, energetic environment. The building itself will enhance Nashville’s skyline and represent best practices in workplace environments. Here’s a snapshot:

  • 514,000 square foot, 30-story high rise building
  • LEED Certified
  • Filled with natural light and collaborative spaces
  • Amenities including cafeteria, fitness center and visitor’s center
As we work together to plan for the move, our company and customers already are seeing the benefits of increased collaboration and innovation. Our new headquarters is shaping Bridgestone Americas, now and for the future.
