Mars Petcare chooses custom office in Tribes expansion at Amstelgebouw
Amsterdam, 10 June 2025 – Mars Petcare, a global leader in pet care, has recently opened a new office space at Tribes Inspiring Workplaces in the Amstelgebouw in Amsterdam. In response to the growing demand for flexible and high-quality office environments, Tribes delivered a customized office space for Mars Petcare that was set up quickly and efficiently. This centrally located workspace perfectly meets Mars Petcare’s needs and supports their growth and identity.
Managed Suite: exclusive, flexible and ready-to-use
For Mars Petcare, a so-called Managed Suite was created: an exclusive, self-contained office space tailored entirely to the company’s identity and requirements. Together with AniCura’s project lead Madelein Holm (success4all) and in collaboration with Verel Building Experiences and Ericis, Tribes supported Mars every step of the way to their new home. The combination of customization and quality makes this solution attractive for organizations seeking a private space with the benefits of flexibility and professional service.

Amstelgebouw expansion
Tribes has been established in the Amstelgebouw for some time and currently leases over 6,000 m2 of office space to various Tribes members.
