Square Footage: 50,000

A Workspace Designed for Connection and Flexibility
PL Marketing, a Kroger-dedicated merchandising services firm, partnered with Kolar Design and OstermanCron to design a new 50,000-square-foot workplace in Newport, Kentucky. The goal: to create a dynamic environment that supports the organization’s growing teams and fast-paced, collaborative workflow. The resulting space balances focus, flexibility, and connection—reflecting PL Marketing’s role in bringing ideas, brands, and people together across the food industry.
Project Details
Spaces That Support Every Way of Working
Our team designed and furnished a complete range of spaces to meet PL Marketing’s evolving needs. Meeting areas were intentionally designed for seamless video conferencing, creating consistent experiences for in-office and remote participants. A series of flexible training rooms features tables with integrated power and adaptable layouts to support different group sizes and functions.
Throughout the open office, we provided a balanced mix of traditional panel systems and modern benching solutions, giving employees the choice between privacy and collaboration. A variety of open collaboration zones—with high-top tables and soft seating—encourage casual connection and creativity. Supporting spaces, including the café, provide welcoming areas for informal meetings and daily connection.
Designed for Today and Tomorrow
By combining thoughtful planning with adaptable furniture solutions, this workplace reflects PL Marketing’s culture of innovation and partnership. The result is a connected, high-performing environment that supports the company’s people, processes, and continued growth.
Working with Maggie and her team was an exceptional experience from start to finish. We originally chose OstermanCron for their well-defined process and clear communication style, and they delivered on that promise every step of the way. What truly set them apart was their ability to guide us through relevant options with confidence and clarity, making what could have been an overwhelming process feel effortless and well-informed. We were equally impressed by the seamless relationship they have with their installation partner, which added another layer of professionalism and trust to the entire project. Every detail was handled with care, and we never felt out of the loop.
OstermanCron has earned our full confidence, and we look forward to partnering with them again for any future company needs.
