Canary Wharf Group launches a new managed office space, with Citi as first customer

Canary Wharf Group (CWG) is launching MadeFor, a fully fitted and managed office space, with Citi to be its first customer, taking 95,000 sq ft at Forty Bank Street while Citi Tower, its UK and EMEA headquarters, at 25 Canada Square, is being refurbished. This is part of the global banking group’s long-term re-commitment to Canary Wharf.

Designed and built by CWG’s in-house team, MadeFor is designed to provide a high quality, fitted, furnished and dressed workspace that’s ready for immediate occupation or which can alternatively be delivered “to order”.  It also offers businesses a fully managed solution, including cleaning, Wi-Fi and IT services, full maintenance and ‘handyman’ services, and refreshments.

Further MadeFor spaces will be available across CWG’s portfolio, including One Canada Square, Forty Bank Street, 20 Water Street and The Columbus Building.

Shobi Khan, CEO, Canary Wharf Group said: “We now offer our customers any type of solution to meet their needs – from taking a few desks in our L39 community to managed services via the MadeFor platform to a bespoke sustainable build to suit. CWG can deliver a sustainable solution to meet the exact needs of the customer – and we can do it with benefit of decades of in-house experience.”

“We are pleased to welcome Citi to Forty Bank Street and our new MadeFor space as they transform the Citi Tower. Citi has an exciting vision for their home at Canary Wharf turning it into an environmentally sustainable, innovative, and energising place to work. We are delighted to partner with them.”

James Bardrick, Citi Country Officer for the UK, said: “Following our recent announcement about transforming Citi Tower to create a flexible, innovative, carbon-efficient, world-class workplace that’s fit for the future, we will be moving a number of our teams to CWG’s Forty Bank Street building.”

“This high quality, sustainable, serviced workspace, just across the street from our current building, will provide our colleagues with a fantastic base to collaborate and work together.”
