BHIVE Workspace has achieved a significant milestone of one million sq ft of shared workspaces across Bengaluru with the addition of its newest facility in Whitefield, Bengaluru. Having started in 2014, BHIVE achieved this milestone in just eight years of its existence and has played a significant role in democratising the shared workspace industry in the country.
With its newest facility in Whitefield which is spread across 23,000 sq ft and offers 700 seats, BHIVE is further expanding its presence in the key business districts of the city, taking the total facility count to 19 across the city. This milestone assumes significance for a homegrown shared workspace provider which has been at the forefront of offering an affordable office experience to thousands of freelancers, employees, and start-ups over the last decade or so.
Commenting on the launch, Shesh Paplikar, Co-founder and CEO of BHIVE Workspace said, “It is indeed a matter of pride for us as we hit the milestone of one mn sq ft of shared workspace across Bengaluru in our endeavour to democratise this space. Over the past eight years, we have been offering the industry-best solutions through our carefully designed shared workspaces with state-of-the-art amenities for hundreds of our occupiers who have continued to impose their faith on us. We are excited to announce that we are growing from strength to strength and have added a new facility in Whitefield to cater to the growing demand for satellites and offices closer to employees’ residences.”
The company has already signed up 12+ properties this year and the addition of this new facility takes the total footprint to over 10 lakh sq ft across Bengaluru, making it one of the largest shared office space providers with over 23,000 seats in total. BHIVE, with its nuanced understanding of the requirements of employees, has been the preferred choice for companies looking to offer flexible working options to its employees and counts the leading startups in fitness, fintech, and other domains as its occupiers.
Earlier in June this year, BHIVE launched its largest co-working space in Bengaluru as it looks to cater to the growing demand for flexible office spaces post the pandemic and strengthen its position as the preferred shared office space provider. Spread across 3 lakh square feet and located in the heart of the city, the shared office space will offer over 8,000 seats and a multitude of retail offerings.
