Office Evolution, a co-working space franchise that provides executive suites, flexible office spaces and virtual offices to independent professionals and small business owners nationwide, is proud to announce its newest location opening in Dunwoody, Georgia — the second of five planned for the greater Atlanta area. Office Evolution co-owner and area director Andy Bean opened his first location in Alpharetta earlier this year and is eager to get this second space up-and-running.

The nearly 7,000-square-foot center, located minutes away from the Perimeter Mall at 56 Perimeter Center E, Suite 150 in Dunwoody, is near numerous restaurants and hotels and is easily accessible to I-285 and Georgia 400. The first floor center, part of a six-story mixed-use building, will offer small businesses and entrepreneurs professional on-demand office space with 24/7 access to all of Office Evolution’s locations nationwide. Members can choose from several packages including hourly, daily, month-to-month and long-term rentals. These packages include mailing and telephone answering services as well as free on-site parking.

The first floor center offers 24 private furnished offices, a community kitchen and a co-working business lounge with seating for dozens of people. The space also has two conference rooms available that can accommodate between six and sixteen people.

While the soft opening is slated for Friday, September 7, 2018, a grand opening event will follow on November 14, 2018.

“The small business community in the Atlanta region is thriving, and we’re thrilled to be able to support its continued growth,” said Bean. “While our first location in Alpharetta has only been open for a few months, it’s already running at 50 percent capacity. This is a true testament of the need for shared office spaces for budding entrepreneurs in the market. We’re excited to stem off of the success we’ve seen so far with this opening in Dunwoody.”

Long before opening an Office Evolution, Andy started working in construction at the young age of 14. After working years in the industry, he wanted to switch gears and enter the corporate world. He moved to Georgia to pursue a sales position in the insurance industry. While Andy enjoyed helping his customers, business ownership was something that always remained in the back of his mind. Eventually, his curiosity in entrepreneurship and helping small business owners take their company to new heights is what led him to Office Evolution.

“Office Evolution gives Andy the best of both worlds,” said Mark Hemmeter, Founder and CEO of Office Evolution. “He is taking his background in sales to sell the concept of office sharing and also gets to have a hand in the construction process as he continues to expand the footprint of Office Evolution throughout Atlanta.”

Hemmeter’s vision for Office Evolution is to provide entrepreneurs with a highly professional co-working space that offers flexible solutions, monthly memberships and all-inclusive pricing. The brand’s expansion in Atlanta is reflective of the demand for a model like Office Evolution’s. By offering conference rooms as well as private and shared office spaces, professionals can connect with peers or have an all-inclusive area to call their own. This variety has helped Office Evolution position itself as the industry’s leading provider of co-working space for small business owners and independent professionals throughout Fulton and Dekalb Counties.

Founded in 2003, the brand has continued to grow and develop successfully in both new and existing markets thanks to the resounding positive response from customers. Office Evolution currently has more than 51 locations open in Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Virginia. The company also recently signed on to open new locations in Idaho, Indiana, Michigan, Missouri and Wisconsin.
