COLUMBUS—DSW Inc., has purchased the holding firm, 810 AC LLC, that owned the company’s headquarters and 700,000-square-foot distribution center here for $72 million.

DSW Inc., a leading branded footwear and accessories retailer, today announced the acquisition of 810 AC LLC, which owns the corporate headquarters of DSW, as well as the distribution center and trailer lot on its home office campus.

Mike MacDonald, president and chief executive officer of DSW Inc., said in a statement that the acquisition reflects a commitment to growing the company by opening stores, expanding the DSW.com business and by adding new accounts to its Affiliated Business Group (formerly the Leased Business Division).
