France Co-Working Space Market is Expected to Reach USD 3158.2 million by 2030

Sustainability, Hybrid Work, and Regional Expansion Reshape the Future of France Co-Working Space Market

According to the Next Move Strategy Consulting, the France Co-Working Space Market size was valued at USD 911.7 million in 2024 and is projected to grow to USD 1178 million by 2025. Additionally, the industry is expected to continue its growth trajectory, reaching USD 3158.2 million by 2030, with a CAGR of 21.8% from 2025 to 2030. 

Sustainability has become a critical driver shaping demand in France’s co-working sector, as enterprises increasingly prioritize environmentally responsible workplaces aligned with national and EU climate commitments. Many co-working operators are now embedding green design principles into their offerings, from energy-efficient lighting and low-carbon materials to waste reduction programs and enhanced public transport accessibility. This aligns with France’s wider regulatory push, including the RE2020 environmental standards for buildings, which encourage operators to modernize workspaces with reduced carbon footprints.

For businesses, choosing sustainable co-working hubs helps advance ESG objectives, strengthen brand reputation, and attract younger, eco-conscious talent. Operators such as Wojo and Deskeo have already emphasized green-certified buildings and wellness-focused design, setting a competitive benchmark in the France co-working space market. Going forward, sustainability-driven demand is expected to accelerate partnerships between landlords and operators for retrofitting older office stock, positioning environmentally friendly co-working solutions as both a compliance necessity and a market differentiator in France.

However, despite strong demand growth, sustaining profitability continues to pose a significant challenge for co-working operators in France. Rising rental obligations, high fit-out and service costs, and aggressive pricing strategies are squeezing margins, particularly in saturated hubs such as Paris. The expansion of established players like Wojo, Deskeo, and IWG has heightened competition, creating downward pressure on desk rates and reducing the buffer between operating costs and revenues. 

To safeguard viability, operators are increasingly shifting toward differentiation-offering premium amenities, curated sector-specific environments, and wellness-oriented services, rather than competing purely on price. Asset-light models, including landlord partnerships and service-based revenue structures, present viable pathways to reduce cost burdens. However, achieving scale while maintaining healthy margins will remain an uphill task unless operators consistently innovate and carve out defensible niches in this crowded market.

On the other hand, beyond Paris, France’s regional hubs such as Nantes, Toulouse, Montpellier, and Strasbourg are rapidly positioning themselves as attractive destinations for co-working investments. The momentum is fueled by workforce decentralization, expanding transport connectivity, and the growing prevalence of remote-first business models. These cities combine comparatively lower real estate costs with rising demand, creating a favorable balance between operator profitability and affordable membership options for freelancers, SMEs, and corporates establishing satellite offices. 

Additionally, regional development initiatives and pro-business policies are reinforcing the shift of economic activity beyond the capital, laying the foundation for sustainable long-term growth. For both investors and operators, secondary cities offer a compelling opportunity to scale operations while sidestepping the intense competition and high operating expenses characteristic of Paris and other saturated metropolitan hubs.

In recent years, the France co-working space market has entered a phase of rapid strategic evolution, shifting from small-scale hubs toward expansive, integrated networks that support hybrid work and enterprise-grade flexibility. Operators are no longer just offering desks, but are repositioning co-working as a core component of urban development, corporate real estate strategies, and hospitality ecosystems. This transformation is driven by rising demand for agile work solutions, decentralization beyond Paris, and the need to repurpose underutilized office assets. With hybrid work becoming mainstream, the industry is adopting models that emphasize densification in metropolitan hubs, partnerships with landlords, and integration with travel and lifestyle platforms to embed co-working into everyday professional routines.

A strong example of this trend is Morning Coworking, which in March 2025 opened its 50th Paris-region site in Boulogne-Billancourt, an eight-story facility covering 3,000 square metres. This milestone signals the maturity of domestic operators that are scaling aggressively and densifying regional markets. Morning’s expansion highlights the intensifying competition with global players like IWG and WeWork for mid-market and corporate clients, while also underscoring the strong appetite for flexible office formats in France’s capital region. 

Meanwhile, IWG, in collaboration with asset manager Perial AM, announced in November 2024 the launch of three new Factory sites across the Paris region and suburban hubs, set to open in early 2025. This project reflects a growing emphasis on converting outdated suburban office buildings into modern hybrid hubs that align with commuter decentralization. Strategically, it diversifies IWG’s footprint beyond central Paris and strengthens its role as a partner for landlords seeking asset revitalization.

In June 2024, hospitality giant Accor integrated co-working brands Wojo and Worklib into its ALL loyalty program, enabling hotel guests and corporate customers to book workspaces while earning rewards. This move expands the distribution channels for flexible spaces, creates cross-selling opportunities, and ties workspace demand more closely to business travel. It represents an important step in embedding co-working into France’s hospitality and mobility ecosystems, reinforcing synergies between travel and work.

Similarly, in February 2024, Deskeo expanded its portfolio by acquiring a premium office property at 145 Avenue Charles de Gaulle in Neuilly-sur-Seine. This acquisition reinforces Deskeo’s strategic focus on securing prime addresses to appeal to enterprise clients seeking prestige alongside flexibility. The move underlines how French operators are targeting high-value markets where quality, exclusivity, and location are decisive factors, positioning themselves as key players in premium co-working demand.
