Flexible office space has become the new rave in Kenya, with several companies buying office space and converting them into ready-to-use units based on specific clients’ needs.

With the new model, Grade A office developers hope to reel in office clientele in a market with an oversupply of office space.

Proponents of this model say the future of office work depends on companies reducing or eliminating non-core office setups while giving more freedom to their employees. 

“The flexible workspace model is disruptive because it tracks the future trends of the workplace that focus on creating environments that are highly desirable for future talents. Added to this is the flexibility offered in terms of leases that companies want and the consistency of brand representation,” said  Kofisi CEO Michael Aldridge in a previous interview.
