CHICAGO, ILLINOIS — Hearing care retailer, Beltone, has announced that it is relocating its US headquarters back to Chicago after 17 years in Glenview, Illinois. The decision to return to its roots was based on the fact that many of Beltone’s employees reside in Chicagoland, and the company has a rich history in Chicago.
The new headquarters will be located in Chicago’s vibrant Fulton Market at 656 W. Randolph.
Beltone was founded by Sam and Faye Posen in 1940, with its first store located in Chicago’s downtown “Loop” district. Over time, Beltone grew into a nationally recognized brand, leading to the company relocating its headquarters to Chicago’s north side to support its manufacturing and research and development needs. In 2005, Beltone moved to Glenview, where it remained until earlier this year.
The move back to Chicago will provide Beltone with the opportunity to work more closely with SteelSeries, a leading gaming and esports peripherals manufacturer that is part of the GN Group. Beltone, SteelSeries, and the GN Hearing US Research & Development team are now located in the same building at 656 W. Randolph.
“Our new headquarters in this modern and invigorating space is the perfect place to continue Beltone’s legacy in Chicago. We’re also very excited about the increased collaboration across the business that this move will foster.”
—Beltone President of North America, David Molella
