ometimes doing the weekly shop can feel like just another job -- now it can be. Britain ’s largest supermarket chain Tesco is trialing using parts of its stores as a co-working space under a tie-up with workspace provider IWG, owner of Regus. The first location to host the trial will be the Tesco Extra in New Malden in Greater London . The store’s 3,800 square foot upper mezzanine level will contain 12 co-working desks with 30 co-working spaces. Mark Dixon, founder and CEO of IWG, said: “New locations in suburban areas will transform communities and are a response to the growing demand we are seeing from customers who want to live and work locally.” In a statement company said that the partnership signalled a “shift towards creating more self-sustaining, vibrant local communities that will greatly improve the work-life balance of local workers”. It is the first collaboration between IWG’s Spaces brand and Tesco.
