Macerich has formed a partnership with workplace operator Industrious.
This is the first time a major mall owner has partnered with a coworking company targeting a multi-property rollout, according to the release.
With nearly 50 locations in 33 cities, the company offers flexible, perk-filled workspaces for established companies ranging from SMBs to Fortune 500 brands, with household-name clients including Lyft, Hyatt, Pandora, Pinterest, Pfizer, Freddie Mac and more.
Under the terms of the partnership, Industrious will operate coworking locations at select Macerich properties, complementing top-drawing retailers including Apple, lululemon, Sephora, Tesla, Nordstrom and more retail names with hospitality-driven workplace experiences.
The first Industrious location in the Macerich partnership is set to open in January 2019 at Scottsdale Fashion Square, a premier shopping and dining destination in Scottsdale, Ariz., offering nearly 2 million square feet of the region’s best brands and experiences.
