"We are pleased to have a firm of this status join Colliers and look forward to a rewarding partnership of serving our mutual clients, as well as leveraging our global resources to grow our customer base in the Northeast."

Colliers Meredith & Grew will transition to the Colliers brand and be known as Colliers Colliers Meredith & Grew. Hynes will remain as Chairman, along with Kevin Phelan as President and Executive Vice President Ron Perry as Head of Brokerage.
