“St. Louis is a major corporate headquarters metro, and this decision by Advantage Solutions underscores that we have the assets and renewed focus on growth that it takes to compete and win on the merits with the largest and most sophisticated global companies,” said Jason Hall, CEO of Greater St. Louis, Inc. “St. Louis is resurgent as we embrace a collaborative culture of winning and building on our strengths. We are proud to have supported Advantage Solutions – a Fortune 1,000 publicly traded company with more than 70,000 employees worldwide – and we are excited to welcome them in joining dozens of other major global companies that call St. Louis home.”

The company, which was founded in 1987 in Southern California, plans to retain its office in Irvine, Calif., as a collaboration hub. Advantage Solutions also plans to open a new collaboration hub in Chicago this fall and plans to continue to use its offices in Minneapolis; Toronto; San Antonio; Rogers, Arkansas; Cincinnati and other locations to foster more collaboration and innovation.
