ismet Commerce has launched a new commercial real estate offering in Newton, MA, designed to cater to the unique needs of growing businesses and e-commerce entrepreneurs. The facility spans 50,000 square feet and offers a mix of traditional workspaces in flexible sizes, along with shipping and fulfillment services, a co-working café, and additional amenities tailored to support business growth.

    "In today's dynamic workplace environment, businesses and e-commerce entrepreneurs are seeking enhanced value in commercial real estate," said Jonathan Arnone, COO at Kismet Commerce. "We are excited to open our doors to Greater Boston's business community and help our partners focus on their growth while we address their space, storage, and fulfillment challenges."

    The new space welcomed its first tenants this month and was celebrated with an event attended by Newton Mayor Ruthanne Fuller, Greg Reibman, President and CEO of the Charles River Regional Chamber, Peter Abair, Executive Director of MassEcon, Bill Manley, CEO and CIO of Calare, and small business owners and entrepreneurs across the region.

    Kismet was founded by veterans of the real estate and fulfillment industry to provide a comprehensive solution under one roof for both businesses and e-commerce entrepreneurs. Its unique combination of individual customizable workspace units and operational services including e-commerce fulfillment, amenities, and staff addresses a need that has not been served until now.

    Kismet's fulfillment service is designed to free clients from the most time-consuming aspects of their business by providing personalized and customizable support close to where they live. Kismet caters to clients of all sizes and stages, offering a comprehensive solution for their needs.

    Located at 77 Rowe Street in Newton, Kismet's new facility is conveniently situated at the intersection of Route 128 and the MA Pike, providing easy access for clients in greater Boston. Designed to cater to the needs of growing businesses that may not benefit from traditional warehouse services or have the resources to invest in bespoke fulfillment models, the Kismet facility offers:

    Individual workspace units ranging from 150 to 2,000 square feet

    Staffed shipping and receiving

    Personalized and customizable e-commerce fulfillment

    Stylized co-working café with stocked pantry

    Co-working membership for fulfillment clients who only require fulfillment services

    On-site client services manager and staff

    Conference rooms with video capability

    Photo and podcast studio

    Daily pick up by UPS, USPS, and other major carriers

    Individually enterprise-level secured Wi-Fi

    Kismet's workspace clients span across various industry segments, from local businesses to Fortune 500 companies like Siemens. E-commerce clients desire personalized service close to where they live and include a wide range of brands and products. Kismet has already leased 47% of its first phase.

    "As I started my search for our U.S. business expansion, I thought we needed a separate office, warehouse, and fulfillment service. When I found Kismet, I discovered they had all three in one place," said William Yu of Imago US.

    "Even though I've just started working with them, I am incredibly impressed with their friendliness and commitment to service. Most importantly, they have significantly reduced my stress and made the transition smooth and efficient," said Eli Gurock of Bumprider. "I highly recommend Kismet Commerce to any small business looking for a supportive and professional logistics partner."
