We have been open for over two weeks for members and are excited to now be able to welcome the public back into our buildings. We’re doing our part when it comes to keeping our members and guests safe. We believe a clean and germ-free space is a happy space, and The Candy Factory team is here to ensure your coworking experience is the best it can be. Our community culture is vital, and our members understand that to be successful in fighting this virus, we need to work as a team. We’re so proud of our members who have stepped up and have been understanding, kind, patient, and supportive over the past four months and while we open.
So, If you’re looking for a “home away from home” office, we got you covered. If you need an office but don’t want to worry about all that comes with managing that office, we got you covered. Working from home can have its perks, but it can also be challenging.
We started our coworking community ten years ago because we understand what it’s like to work in isolation. We have been working hard to solve that problem since our inception and, in the process, created a robust and supportive community.
If coworking (community working together) interests you, and you’re ready to take a Coworking Vacation, schedule a tour today. We’d be happy to show you around and introduce you to our caring community and team. Let us be your Sweet Escape.

“Being back feels great! I missed our community so much. While we connected online during the shutdown, nothing replaces being here in person. We’re following all guidelines provided by the CDC and the State of Pa, and I and my dedicated team are here to make sure your coworking experience is the best and safest it can be. Welcome back Lancaster!”
To keep you safe, the team and our members are doing the following:
- We’re following the CDC and State guidelines, which you can find posted in both of our buildings. You can see our friendly signs all over our facility. Who said signage needs to be boring?
- We’re cleaning all high touched SURFACES throughout the day, disinfecting the checkin station after each use, and cleaning the entire space at the beginning and end of each day.
- We require our members and guests to wear masks when coming into our facility, when in groups, and when going up and down the stairs. Masks are not required when at your desk or when a safe distance can be maintained.
- Sofas have been covered with an easy to clean material and are cleaned after each use.
- Our soap dispensers make cleaning your hands for 20 seconds easy and fun. They will even smile at you while you washup to make sure you are washing for the suggested amount of time.
- Our team is temperature checked each day. Not feeling well? Staff and members are staying home when under the weather.
- We have outdoor coworking for when you need a breath of fresh air or a place outside to meet with clients.
- Sneezeguards and hand sanitizers have been placed throughout the building for your hand cleaning convenience.
- Stay connected via our virtual channels: Slack and our new Candy Factory community via the Mighty Network platforms.
You don’t need to go it alone, connect with us virtually or in-person. Become part of our coworking community today!
“It’s wonderful to have a space to safely commune with other hard working people. While it was great to remain connected via Zoom and Slack during the initial shutdown phase of the COVID-19 response, there’s nothing quite like seeing your fellow co-workers, even if they’re 6 feet away and largely hidden behind a mask.”
“The overwhelming sense of community here has made navigating the “new normal” much more bearable. Not only are we as team striving to do what we can to keep the space clean and safe, but members have also been great supporters of our efforts and that has made all the difference!.”
“While I loved having the extra time spent with my dog at home during the stay-at-home order, I’m glad to be back at The Candy Factory! Even at a distance, it’s great to be around the energy of others. It helps me get motivated and stay productive throughout the day.”
THE CANDY FACTORY MEMERSHIP DETAILS
The Candy Factory—a coworking space established in 2010—is located in the heart of downtown Lancaster, PA.
What Do We Do?
Coworking and shared professional workspaces help promote business growth, creative thinking, shared brilliance, and collaboration through an affordable office solution. The open space concept we provide offers many advantages, from networking and collaboration opportunities, to easily accessible and shared resources. Both locations are perfect for small businesses, freelancers, remote workers, nonprofits, and other community members/groups from various professional backgrounds.
Our Mission
Our mission is to foster our community and help spur the growth of small businesses in and around Lancaster City by offering the resources and support needed to encourage that growth.
We think outside of the traditional office space:
We Share, We Gather, We Imagine, We Create, We Thrive, We COWORK!
