Carnival Corp. has purchased property near Miami International Airport, where it plans to build a new global headquarters.
The property is in the 250-acre Waterford Business District just south of the airport, which is about 3 miles east of the company's current headquarters. Carnival Corp. declined to provide the address and is withholding other details.
The new campus is due to open in 2028 and will accommodate more than 2,000 employees, the first time that the majority of shoreside employees will be in one location, according to Carnival Corp.
The development will include a headquarters building and a facility for performer training and rehearsals, together totaling between 600,000 and 700,000 square feet.
"Co-locating our North America shoreside team members on a shared campus -- designed from the ground up to support how we work and what we do -- will foster even greater knowledge-sharing, innovation, efficiency and career growth," said Carnival Corp. CEO Josh Weinstein.
