Colliers Meredith & Grew has changed its name to Colliers International to bring its real estate professionals and service lines under one brand.

The consolidation under a single brand signifies Colliers International’s commitment to providing clients with access to a complete set of real estate services locally, nationally or internationally, according to a statement.

The company coins itself as the third largest commercial real estate services company in the world, with 15,000 professionals operating out of more than 480 offices in 61 countries. Two Boston businessmen, J. Morris Meredith and Edward Wigglesworth Grew, founded the company 130 years ago, and eventually expanded the commercial leasing business to include property and trust management.

The announcement of the branding change was made at the company’s 32nd annual "Trends in the Real Estate Market" seminar. The event, which attracted more than 1,000 area business executives and media, was held at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center.

"Today is not simply about a new look and feel. It is more about the completion of our integration into a truly global platform with a breadth and depth of services that will enable us to meet every one of our client’s commercial real estate needs, whether in the Boston area or on the other side of the world," said Thomas J. Hynes, co-chairman and CEO of Colliers International Boston. "While we remain keenly focused on the New England market, since joining Colliers in 2008, we have completed more than 100 transactions for our local clients in diverse markets including San Francisco, Cleveland, New York, London and Mumbai."

Co-Chairman Kevin Phelan added: "We have gained international appeal and in a way we’re more of a Boston company now because our city is so connected internationally."
