Twenty years ago, Danish real estate broker and entrepreneur Jakob Dalhoff, now living and working in Ukrainian Lviv, and his former business partner Hauke ​​Haas developed and launched a new innovative rental web portal, MatchOffice.

During the following years, MatchOffice.com expanded as an independent marketing platform for brokers, commercial real estate companies and private landlords to cover Germany, other larger Western European countries, and later the USA, the Middle East, Asia, Africa and more.

Today, MatchOffice, now with headquarters in Lviv, has established their level and status as one of the leading players in the global commercial property lease market. 

After the pandemic, a lifted and updated, redesigned MatchOffice.com represents and offers more than 12,000 flexible workspaces worldwide.


Strong growth

"This summer, we implemented an updated version of our provider backend, which ensures a streamlined process when creating and editing ads," MatchOffice CEO Jakob Dalhoff emphasizes. 

"We also created our first AI tool, an integration to ChatGPT, that supports landlords writing a detailed lease description in no time. Additionally, we recently introduced new features to enhance advertisement on social media."


  



"This autumn, we are working on launching some significant marketing initiatives in
a couple of our strongest national rental markets," the celebrating MatchOffice CEO
Jakob Dalhoff emphasizes.



"During these months, we are working on launching some significant marketing initiatives in a couple of our biggest national rental markets.

In the wake of the hybrid workflow breakthrough, our global CRE leasing industry is facing strong growth in the number of locations. Also, providers are taking smaller spaces with shorter terms," Jakob Dalhoff adds.


Supporting Ukraine

When Russia's army began its violent assaults on the Ukrainian population on February 24, 2022, the daily workflows and routines at MatchOffice company were heavily affected - one employee had to join the army.

MatchOffice decided to go on the offensive themselves and began developing extensive aid and support programs for the numerous victims and combatants involved, partly in collaboration with the Lviv International Rotary Club.

 



MatchOffice and Jakob Dalhoff have facilitated various supporting donations, from
LEGO gift boxes for grateful children to hospital generators and mobile emergency
clinics for Ukraine's military frontlines.


 

Jakob Dalhoff has been the driving force behind humanitarian support projects like the production and distribution of mobile emergency clinics for Ukraine's military front lines, generators for hospitals in Kharkiv and Mykolaiv, donating thermostats to keep the feet and hands of the Ukrainian soldiers warm during the winter.

Also, in these challenging times, Jakob Dalhoff felt his duty was to boost morale and courage among his 40 MatchOffice employees in Lviv. 


Further upgrading

"In close partnership with our Danish sister organization, Lokalebasen.dk, MatchOffice is now the best-equipped modern and innovative business rental platform with an international presence in 20 countries.

This summer, we have worked intensively on further upgrading the communication quality and making it even more personal to our MatchOfice customers, potential customers, and clients," Jakob Dalhoff says.


  



The MatchOffice headquarters in Lviv is intensively working on further upgrading of
their 20 years old CRE leasing platform, ensuring updated, streamlined and efficient
processes when using the services of MatchOffice.

 


"We thrive on developing our mission and business in a highly competitive market, ensuring an updated, streamlined and efficient process when using the services of MatchOffice. 

And I feel strongly comfortable, confident and optimistic about the prospects that MatchOffice will be able to celebrate many more great anniversaries in a hopefully different peaceful future here in Ukraine," Jakob Dalhoff points out.  ●
