"The new facility helps to improve operational efficiency by bringing together employees to one centralized corporate campus." The firm said its expansion at Glenview's Prairie Glen Corporate Campus, 2301 Patriot Boulevard, will create and retain about 125 jobs.

Incentives also include a training grant through the Employer Training Investment Program. The Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity said the incentives will create 66 new jobs and retain 60 jobs." Anixter expects to have occupancy beginning in April of 2013. It's headquarters is located within the village's Tax Increment Financing district making it eligible for tax credits. In accordance with Anixter's corporate sustainability philosophy, the firm said it will work toward LEED certification at the completion of its construction.
