I agree with dec. The "respective" seems a bit redundant.
It's an interesting question, because the author here is obviously trying to comment on how "each" office operates in its own "area". In that sense, "respective" is helpful, because it singularly conveys how each individual office is responsible for its region.
One way or another, it's kind of a nice word to have to use in an instance like this!
