THE OPPORTUNITY / 01

Coffee is one of the most repeated brand experiences in your workplace.

Most office coffee models are built around supply. Closer Workplace is built around the full experience — what is served, how consistently it performs, how the station feels and how little operational attention it requires from your team.

We are opening a limited number of workplace partnerships in Sofia for operators who want coffee to become part of the reason people choose, remember and return to their space.

THE SYSTEM / 02

One system. Four connected layers.

Every partnership is designed around the location, traffic, current setup and service expectations.

01

Coffee

Specialty coffee selected for the way your teams and members actually drink it — with consistency at scale.

02

Equipment

Commercial machine configurations matched to usage, menu, available space and operational reality.

03

Service

Setup, calibration and a clear service structure designed to protect quality and minimise disruption.

04

Experience

Launch moments, tastings and workplace activations that turn a daily utility into a member touchpoint.

THE DIFFERENCE / 03

Not another coffee supplier.

COMMON QUESTIONS / 07

Before you apply.

Do we need to replace our current machines?+

Not necessarily. We first assess the machines, volume and quality targets. If the existing setup can support the required experience, the program can begin with coffee, calibration and a service rhythm.

Can you support multiple locations?+

Yes. Multi-location consistency is one of the reasons the program exists. The rollout structure is designed after we understand each location, traffic profile and current equipment.

Is this only for coworking spaces?+

No. The program is also suitable for premium offices and selected hospitality environments where recurring consumption and guest or member experience justify a designed system.

Why are partnerships limited?+

Each initial rollout requires site assessment, calibration and close operational attention. Limiting intake protects execution quality rather than creating artificial scarcity.
