Office Evolution Signs Development Deal To Bring Virtual Offices



Office Evolution, a virtual office and executive suites provider, has inked a development deal to bring multiple units to North Dakota, securing a location in Williston and planning to add Minot and Dickinson to the roster. Office Evolution will provide local and international businesses the opportunity to secure a flexible and efficient presence in the booming Bakken Region. This development agreement marks Office Evolution’s first foray outside of Colorado and a new franchise venture with Hegg Companies, an investment and commercial real estate firm.

North Dakota’s bustling business scene, especially in the Bakken oil fields, is an ideal locale for the virtual office brand. North Dakota is a leader in the current trend in hydraulic fracturing or “fracking”, a flourishing and rapidly changing industry that perfectly fits the flexible and agile model of Office Evolution’s concept. As a small business incubator, Office Evolution prides itself on offering services such as permanent and on-demand office space, meeting spaces, telephone answering, fax and administrative assistance. Office Evolution provides real, affordable office solutions for those that periodically commute into North Dakota for business and acts as a vital stepping stone for small companies to hone their craft and grow their enterprises. The Hegg Companies, a top commercial real estate company in South Dakota, is teaming with Office Evolution to fill a high demand created by the fracking trade for virtual office spaces and services.


“The Hegg Companies have such a great reputation and we are pleased to bring North Dakota multiple new locations,” said Mark Hemmeter, CEO of Office Evolution. “This is a milestone for Office Evolution and we look forward to serving North Dakota and launching the innovative enterprises of local business community members.”
