Framingham office supply retailer Staples announced Tuesday its own in-house membership-based coworking concept at three Massachusetts retail stores just months after ending a relationship with coworking firm Workbar.
The new offering, Staples Studio, is open in three retail stores in Brighton, Danvers and Norwood.
Staples Studio offers private or shared offices including podcasting studios, unlimited meeting room use, business cards, and unlimited black and white printing, along with free coffee and snacks.
If members sign up for three months by July 31, they can receive another three months for free. Members receive 10% off in-store purchases for the first year.
The locations of the company’s new coworking spaces was previously occupied by Workbar via a collaboration with Staples. Members of that program can continue physically working from those locations.
The two companies announced their separation on Feb. 26, with both indicating a desire to focus on their own customers, with Staples saying it wanted to broaden its range of coworking offerings for small businesses.
According to Staples' website, Staples Studio will be coming to other Greater Boston stores shortly.
