+ JCI Jones Chemical buys Rivo downtown building
Sarasota-based JCI Jones Chemical has purchased the 7,603-square-foot Rivolta Group headquarters building in downtown Sarasota for $2.3 million.

The goal of acquiring the building, according to Jeff Jones, the firm’s president and CEO, was his company’s need for additional space and greater permanence.

“It’s difficult to look back on spending more than $3 million leasing space with nearly nothing to show for it,” Jones says. “This was a cash deal so we don’t have to pay any rent, just property taxes.”

JCI Jones Chemical also plans to use the new building to centralize in Sarasota more of its executives from around the world. The company most recently leased space in the Sarasota City Center and the Sarasota Quay prior to that.

Built in 2007, the building at 1765 Ringling Blvd. features two floors of office space over parking.
Jones hopes to have his company operating from the new location by or before Labor Day.
