Café One Expands to 18 Locations Nationwide

Café One, Nigeria’s coworking and coffee lounge brand, has expanded its reach to 18 hubs across nine states, reinforcing its reputation as one of the country’s leading flexible workspace providers.

The company announced the expansion in a statement on Tuesday, noting that it aims to redefine the future of work in Nigeria by merging productivity, lifestyle, and community in a single experience.

With more professionals moving away from traditional office settings, Café One said it has built an environment where freelancers, startups, and corporates can collaborate in a creative and inspiring atmosphere. Its hubs combine modern work facilities with café culture, making them spaces where ideas and partnerships can thrive.

“Our mission is to create spaces where people work and live better,” said General Manager, Kelechi Nwaozuzu. “We want to build communities where business growth, personal connections, and lifestyle merge seamlessly.”

Unlike conventional coworking centres that only provide desks and internet, Café One offers a range of services — from private offices and training rooms for corporates to affordable packages for freelancers. Its “Café One for Business” package also provides entrepreneurs with virtual offices, mailing services, and professional addresses.

To deepen customer loyalty, members enjoy discounts and cashback through the Café One Card. Beyond work, the hubs double as cultural spaces, hosting networking events, workshops, and private functions.

By situating its centres in accessible neighbourhoods, Café One hopes to address issues of convenience and proximity while providing cost-effective alternatives in an economy where running traditional offices has become increasingly expensive.

Industry watchers say the company’s growth reflects rising demand for flexible work solutions in Nigeria, particularly as hybrid and remote work models gain traction.
