Artist Endeavor Relocates Operations to Warren, Eyes Expansion and Local Job CreationSource: Google Street View

Artist Endeavor, a company specializing in direct-to-fan merchandising and fulfillment, is packing up its goods and relocating to Warren from its previous Ferndale location. The expansion move into Macomb County is not just a simple change in scenery but a strategic decision to quickly satisfy a growing customer base and employment opportunities in the region.

Assisting the transition, the Macomb County Department of Planning and Economic Development played a key role by linking Artist Endeavor with local resources. The economic department helped to connect the company to Macomb/St. Clair Michigan Works! and Macomb Community College, aiming to swiftly fulfill its workforce needs. A statement on Macomb County's official website highlights the collaboration promising a boon to local employment with the creation of 15 new full-time positions.

The growth of Artist Endeavor comes at a time of increased demand for companies that offer specialized services to music artists and record labels. As a shipper of apparel and merchandise, their largest sales volume hits during the hectic holiday season. It typically sees a spike in temporary hires, employing an additional 12-15 seasonal staff members to manage the surge.

With the procurement of two buildings totaling an impressive 150,000 square feet, Artist Endeavor is set to ramp up its operations significantly. Companies with an eye to expand or set up shop in Macomb County are encouraged to contact MCPED at 586-469-5100 for free and confidential assistance – implicating a welcoming stance for business growth and development in the area.
