Young Living held a ceremonial ribbon-cutting event on May 29th to celebrate the opening of its new Global Headquarters in Lehi, Utah. This year also marks the company’s 25th anniversary. 

The ceremonial ribbon cutting featured remarks from Mark Johnson, Lehi City Mayor; Thom Carter, Executive Director of UCAIR; and Mary Young, Jared Turner, and Ron Harris of Young Living Essential Oils. Plus, United States Congressman Ben McAdams delivered a keynote address. 

The New HQ

The new HQ is a five-story, 263,000-square-foot building, constructed to qualify for both LEED and Green Globe certification. The unique design organizes workspace for nearly 1,000 employees around a botanical atrium with two immense skylights and a three-story waterfall.

Keeping with Young Living’s dedication to nature and its zero-waste goal, the building boasts more than 20 eco-friendly features, including roof solar panels, interior glass walls to maximize natural lighting, regionally sourced construction materials, vehicle-charging stations, and extensive recycling systems.

Additional features include the Skyrider Amphitheater, a research greenhouse, and the D. Gary Young Museum scheduled to open in the summer of 2019.

Jared Turner, President and COO of Young Living, says, “…we pulled out all the stops when it came to construction and catering to our employees’ needs…our neighbors and friends can eat organic, locally sourced food at the Vitality Cafe, while employee amenities also include an on-campus gym with company-subsidized personal training, an indoor atrium, and outdoor gardens for a dose of nature during the workday.”

Open To The Public 

The new building is located at 1538 Sandalwood Drive in Lehi. The company invites visitors to stop by to view the atrium, watch the distillation of essential oils in the science lab, and visit the museum.

The on-site Experience Center will give the public an opportunity to learn more about Young Living’s global farms, vast array of essential oils and oil-infused products, Seed to Seal quality commitment, 5×5 Pledge goals, and more.
