Business software company Fortnox continues to grow in Malmö and has signed a seven-year lease with Wihlborgs for 3,700 square metres at Werket (Skrovet 6) in Dockan. This represents an expansion of approximately 2,300 square metres compared with the company's current premises. The move-in is scheduled for late spring 2027.
Fortnox has been a Wihlborgs tenant since 2020, when it moved into premises at Drottninggatan 15. Over the years, the company has gradually expanded its space to 1,400 square metres. It will now relocate its Malmö operations to larger, customised premises at Isbergs gata 2 in Dockan. The space covers almost two entire floors.
Fortnox is headquartered in Växjö and has offices in Malmö, Linköping and Stockholm. The company helps businesses start, run and develop their operations through digital services in areas including accounting, invoicing and financing. Fortnox has approximately 1,100 employees, of whom 200 are based in Malmö.
Werket is part of Dockan's continued transformation from an industrial area into a mix of entrepreneur-driven businesses, knowledge-based organisations and established companies. This autumn, Media Evolution will expand its nearby operations into Werket, creating a new hub for entrepreneurship, sustainable growth and future-oriented work together with Minc and the gaming community Game Habitat. Cloetta will also move its largest office in Scandinavia to the building this autumn.
"Malmö is an important part of our continued growth, not least because of the opportunities to attract talent within finance, tech and development. We like the combination of services, restaurants, the marina and exciting businesses, as well as the proximity to train and bus connections. At Werket, we will have a larger and more flexible workplace, with both spacious areas for collaboration and opportunities for focused work. We have had a good relationship with Wihlborgs for several years and look forward to continuing our collaboration at Werket," says Peter Bengtsson, Head of Facilities at Fortnox.
"Fortnox has grown significantly in Malmö since becoming a tenant with us in 2020, and it is great to now be able to offer them premises that can grow with that development. Both the building and the surrounding area have many of the qualities that businesses are looking for today. The fact that Fortnox also sees continued potential in Malmö is a strong testament to the city's attractiveness as a labour market," says Ulrika Hallengren, CEO of Wihlborgs.
