Amenity consulting + management powered by technology.

About us

Lulafit is an amenity consultant and management company for commercial real estate. We make your asset relevant through custom amenity strategy consulting, experience management, and our proprietary technology - which seamlessly integrates into your building ecosystem. Lulafit was founded over a decade ago to fundamentally change the value proposition of office. Historically, office tenants have come to the workplace out of obligation, but trends in the modern workforce have required a shift in how we think about engaging users in a space. Companies must rely on their physical office presence to cultivate culture, community, engagement, convenience, hospitality, and wellbeing. This is the crux of what helps them attract and retain the workforce that drives their business forward. In your pursuit of a real estate portfolio that is relevant, lulafit is your partner in designing and operating a successful hospitality strategy.

  • This week, our CEO, Colleen Werner, and our SVP of People, Heather Schwager, flew to Boston for the day to conduct some “love laps” with our team. We met up with Jennifer Ellis (Bergen) our Customer Success Director based in Boston, who led us on a fantastic visit of all of our locations. While touring, we saw our mission - revolutionize the workplace - in action. Our Fitness Managers were leading PT sessions, our Tenant Experience Coordinator showed us how he helps his tenants decompress with free massages, and we saw new members checking into our Summer Street Squash Club. We’re so glad our Boston team supports one another and their smiles and passion made it clear they love honing their craft every day. Team Boston, thank you for making a lasting impact on the tenants you serve - and happy hour with you was really fun, too!

  • Last week, our Executive Leadership Team conducted what we call “love laps” in Chicago (in negative 5 degrees nonetheless 🥶) at all our corporate office buildings where our lulafit team brings the magic every day. We saw first-hand how our host team members are sparking connection, enabling well-being and unlocking productivity in the fitness classes they were teaching, at the holiday parties they were hosting and by warmly greeting the tenants whose lives they make easier. Team Chicago - Thank you for warmly welcoming us and for the impact you make at our sites every day.  And so glad we could end our time together by celebrating all we accomplished in 2024 with a party!

  • "Amenities are part of the algorithm of what makes a building 'prime' and are major rent drivers, JLL found. Buildings with snazzy features like a roof or sky terrace can get rent premiums of 5.2% over Class-A buildings in the same submarket. Courtyards with outdoor seating and LEED-certified buildings offer up to 3.5% and 2.8% premiums, respectively." We partner with building owners to enhance the value and appeal of their office assets.

  • High-quality amenities are significantly boosting profitability and occupancy in office buildings. Bisnow highlights some standout examples–buildings with roof terraces and outdoor spaces are garnering a 5.2% rent premium compared to other Class-A buildings; highly amenitized buildings have gained 23.3 M SF of absorption since the onset of the pandemic, in contrast to other buildings losing more than 50M SF of occupancy. It’s clear: to thrive in today’s office market, strategic positioning of standout amenities is key. Let lulafit use our expertise to guide you through an asset reposition and operate an exceptional amenity program to activate your investment. https://lnkd.in/g8-8Hnq9
