Westhive wants to expand further
Westhive plans to open new locations in Geneva, Basel, Zug and in its native Zurich over the next two years. The provider of flexible office space was able to increase the number of tenants by over 50 percent in 2020.
Westhive sees an increasing demand for flexible office space. The Zurich-based provider, founded in 2017, therefore plans to open new locations in Basel, Zurich-Stettbach and Zug at the beginning of 2022. Geneva is to follow a year later, Westhive writes in a statement. The location there is to be set up in the new Alto Pont-Rouge and cover an area of 4500 square meters. It will also have its own fitness center, two restaurants and an event conference center.
A total of around 1,000 jobs will be created at the four locations on 10,000 square meters. "All locations have a high proportion of private offices, for which we are seeing the greatest demand," Westhive co-founder Andreas Widmer is quoted in the press release.
Westhive continued to see strong growth in 2020. The number of tenants has risen by over 50 percent. "We are seeing continuous demand for flexible offices and workplaces, even now that the home office is mandatory," says Widmer. "But most of all we are pleased that we have lost practically no members."
