The Morrell Group

KIRCO acquired the Morrell Group’s 77,000-square-foot headquarters in Auburn Hills, Michigan, and leased the facility back to the company, enabling Morrell Group to unlock capital for reinvestment in its business. The transaction allows the company to focus on its core operations while relying on KIRCO’s expertise in property ownership, management, and maintenance.

The partnership reflects a longstanding relationship, as KIRCO MANIX (formerly Campbell Manix) originally constructed the headquarters building and continues to support its long-term success through a commitment to quality ownership and service.
