A cafe and coworking concept is headed to the Atlanta area.
SUCCESS Space, a concept developed by SUCCESS Franchising, a subsidiary of eXp World Holdings, Inc., has announced an eight-unit agreement with Atlanta businessman Alvin Shah.
Designed to create a suburban, modern workspace, SUCCESS Space offers coworking offices, a full-service cafe and access to onsite business coaching for local professionals and entrepreneurs.
Shah, the managing partner of First Option Mortgage, also has a history of franchising with QSR and fast-casual restaurants.
“Throughout my career within the mortgage, real estate and franchise industries, I’ve been driven by a mindset of scale,” Shah said in a news release. “I’ve grown my businesses by partnering with the right talent and helping other people in the process. SUCCESS Space is a concept that aligns with my experience across these industries and with my values as an entrepreneur. I look forward to contributing to the growth of the brand and working alongside fellow dedicated professionals in the process.”
Shah will open his first location alongside his business partner, Jose De La Rosa, a commercial realtor in Atlanta. The team is actively searching for real estate opportunities and aims to open the location in the next year, according to the announcement. From there, Shah will begin marketing the franchise opportunity to individuals who will continue the brand’s growth in the territory.
The agreement is part of the brand’s newly launched regional development program. SUCCESS Space is expanding nationally with both single and multi-unit franchise operators.
“Alvin’s professional background creates a perfect synergy with SUCCESS Space,” SUCCESS Space President Ted Laatz said. “His expertise in commercial and residential real estate and franchising provides him with a unique perspective and ability to successfully further our mission in key markets in Atlanta. Alvin is a valued franchise partner, and we are confident in SUCCESS Space’s bright future in Atlanta alongside him.”
Coworking spaces have grown popular in recent years with more people working remotely and with flexible schedules.
