Konica Minolta’s Idaho Sales Office ‘goes green’

Konica Minolta chose the VengaWorks facility in Meridian because of the parallels to its business philosophy. The VengaWorks space is a green environment in construction materials and culture that allows occupying tenants to understand the environment as well as operate within it. VengaWorks has received Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) NC Gold certification from the U.S. Green Building Council. LEED certification is the internationally accepted third-party verification providing owners and operators a framework for the design, construction and operation of high-performance green buildings. ‘NC’ denotes new construction and Gold is the second-highest rating buildings can receive.

"VengaWorks’ business model has given my team a real look at what we can do as members of the Konica Minolta family to directly impact the environment beyond the machines we market," said John Boyd, Branch Sales Manager, Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A. Inc. "VengaWorks’ remote facilities offer all the same amenities that the main office offers. Minimizing the cost of travel is a major benefit of the property. In addition, our sales team can operate from the field, which results in more productive time on calls while still having access to the phone and a desk in the very town in which they are working."
