“Co-working” has become popular across the country. The practice of entrepreneurs renting individual offices side by side and sharing common space and boardrooms has recently been used by two well known Regina businesses.
The concept is all Regan Hinchcliffe needs to run sMedia, his global marketing company that now has 70 associates working from home.
“So sMedia has been around for eleven years. We just got out of a big office. Everyone works from home now. The company’s doing really well,” he told CTV News.
Dandy’s Ice Cream and The Everyday Kitchen recently opened a shared location in east Regina, with the two local businesses sharing retail space.
“I just love the collaboration with the other businesses and it’s just something so unique so just really excited to bring something different to the city,” Daniela Mintenko, owner of Dandy’s, explained.
For most of the businesses, this will be their second location in the city.
“I think it’s awesome. I think it’s a unique experience for Regina in that you’ve getting local brands working together,” Mark Shmelinski of The Everyday Kitchen told CTV News.
