Foodies Arena is the ideal environment for co-working and co-creation in the culinary industry. Featuring five kitchen units, a show kitchen and a semi-professional kitchen, the team behind Foodies Arena have created a dynamic workspace that stimulates productivity, creativity and co-creation. However, with a range of Flexible workstations and private offices available, the door is open to all sorts of industries, as explained by co-founder Rebecca Hucks;

“We are a co-working, co-creation place for entrepreneurs and freelancers in a prestarter or starter phase. An exceptional feature is that we do not build the community around a certain expertise or business sector. We see people of very different fields coming to Foodies Arena, where a food entrepreneurs can sit next to a bookkeeper, insurer or software developer. This generates chances for enriching cross-pollination.”

As well as the core workspaces, special features to promote healthy living have been incorporated throughout the project, with the idea of a healthy active lifestyle at work a central concept considered in the planning stages.

As a food focused environment, healthy eating receives a lot of attention, with fresh fruit and nutritious treats regularly served up to the workers. The conference table doubles up as a ping pong table during breaks from work, and treadmills are onsite for those looking to work up an appetite. And for those more adventurous, a running track circles the kitchen areas, offering a different way to exercise, whilst also adding to the overall aesthetic.
