PRIVY BERLIN IN NUMBERS
Trust you can measure.
2012
Founded in Berlin. Fourteen years of continuous service.
72,000 m²
Of office and coworking space in our care across Berlin.

Our clients stay for the quality of our work, year after year.
100%
Of our clients came to us through a recommendation.

The same Privy team member has cared for one client’s office.
42%
Saved on maintenance work, as reported by one office client.
WHAT WE DO
Everything your workplace needs.
One partner for cleaning, supplies and the small things that keep an office running. You pay only for the hours actually used.
01
Regular cleaning
Kitchens, washrooms, floors and waste on a fixed schedule shared in advance.
02
Deep cleaning
Our weekend Privy Standard: appliances, cabinets, bins, chair legs and every touchpoint.
03
General cleaning
A full detailed clean when you move in or start with us. Done once, kept for good.
04
Coworking operations
Day and night teams for busy shared spaces, with one point of contact.
05
Supplies at cost
Towels, paper and detergents from Germany’s largest wholesalers, invoiced without markup.
06
Supervision & quality
Regular checks, restocking, repair reports and handyman help through trusted partners.
07
Event support
Extra hands before and after your events. Back to perfect working order by morning.
08
Office manager cover
No office manager right now? We take over the daily office management until your new one starts.
09
Sustainable care
Fewer chemicals, less plastic, bio-based products, and ozone disinfection on request.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
A partner, not a vendor.
Cleaning means cleaning everything. Moving a bottle, wiping the oven, refilling the fridge: none of it becomes a line on your invoice. We work to a system, a schedule and a plan that cover your whole office, every day, including every hygiene requirement.
We have done only cleaning and workplace care for 14 years. You work with us directly. No marketplace in between and no platform fee on top.
ALWAYS INCLUDED, FREE OF CHARGE
The Signature Workplace System™ · Supervisors and site leads · Supplies at cost · 24/7 human service
WHO WE WORK WITH
Companies with a strong culture that care for their people every day.
They want a B2B partner who takes part in how the office runs, not a supplier who delivers a service and leaves.
THE RIGHT FIT
Made for companies where the workplace is part of the culture.
Teams who care for their people every day choose us, and stay with us for years.
LUXURY HOSPITALITY STANDARDS
The care of a five-star residence, in your office.
Our founder designed the operating systems and trained the teams of companies that own luxury rentals in Berlin and internationally. Their guests include Hollywood celebrities during the Berlinale and other major events in Germany, and members of royal families from Europe and the Middle East.
Your office receives the same care.
Discretion
No photos, no visitors let in, doors stay closed.
Precision
Every detail and every touchpoint, every visit.
Anticipation
We see what is needed and do it before you ask.
FOR OFFICE MANAGERS
Your office manager’s best partner.
Many office managers never trained in surfaces, products or machine care. They do not need to. We know it, so they can focus on their real job.
Nothing to chase
No checking up on the cleaning, no feedback rounds, no wondering which product goes on which surface.
The kitchen, fully cared for
Fridges, microwaves and coffee machines cleaned and maintained. Dishwashers loaded and ready for the new week.
Stocked and ready
Fridges and drinks displays refilled, milk in place, breakfast set up, as we do in our coworking spaces.
Orders prepared for you
We prepare the list of supplies and food, from milk to cereal. You order it directly, or we order it for you.
New office manager onboarded
We show every new office manager how the company runs, how events are organised and the cleaning and building plan your leadership approved.
One invoice, one report
One clear invoice each month, with your Workplace Report: score, hours and supplies used. Every extra activity listed.
Company apartments, too
For apartments you keep for your employees, we handle check-in and check-out, supplies, cleaning, laundry and preparation for the next guest.
FOR INVESTORS, VCs AND MULTI-SITE COMPANIES
One standard across your whole portfolio.
We do not sell cleaning hours. We implement The Signature Workplace System™, so you can focus on your business while we take care of your workplace and how it runs every day. Built over 14 years with venture capital and private equity firms, investors, start-ups and their portfolio companies, where needs change as the business grows. Every client receives a PRIVY Signature Workplace Blueprint: a personal plan for offices from 2,000 to 50,000 m², from the first analysis to daily standards, responsibilities and measured results.
1
Tell us about the new office
A new investment, a new branch, a new coworking site. One message is enough.
2
We bring the proven system
We create your Signature Workplace Blueprint for the new space and start right away.
3
Same quality, one point of contact
Every location at the same high standard. One dedicated contact, a monthly Workplace Report and a quarterly Savings Review.
WHY IT PAYS OFF
61%
higher cognitive test scores in offices with cleaner air and fewer chemical vapours, in a Harvard study. That is why we use bio-based products.
Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, Allen et al., 2015
2 h
a week that office workers can lose searching for documents in clutter. Clutter also raises stress and anxiety.
IN DEVELOPMENT
An AI-supported system to run coworking spaces anywhere in the world
One standard, one quality and one way of working in every city. Lower costs, less time, and training for the teams who do the cleaning.

FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY
Our savings come from smarter operations, never from cutting people.
GIVING BACK
Care does not stop at the office door.
Mentoring children in Bulgaria
Our founder has started mentoring children from disadvantaged backgrounds in her home country.
A family in Ukraine
For two years our founder has cared for a family who lost their home in the war in Ukraine, and their health after serious accidents. Our next goal is to raise the funds for them to return home and repair their roof, and for the father’s final operation. If you would like to help, ask us for the donation link.
An educational community
An NGO of parents, educators and psychologists who help every child thrive. Courses, support groups and training for young people, parents and schools, with European programmes such as Erasmus+.
OUR CAMPAIGNS
2026
One tree for every client
This year we plant as many trees as we have clients.
2027
Three children into university
We help as many children as we can, and at least three into university, with the clothes and materials they need.
EVERY NEW CLIENT
€500 for a child’s future
For every new client, we set aside €500 for these children and our causes.
Join us
Our clients can join our causes and support these children and families too. It would be our great pleasure. Ask us at the booth.

WITH YOU FOR THE LONG RUN
Your partner in every chapter of your growth.
One new site a month
We never take on sites in bulk. Each new site is set up properly first: the system runs, the team is in sync, everything works. Only then do we welcome the next client. That is why we usually have a waiting list.
Through every stage of your company
Wherever you move, we move with you. When companies downsized their teams and their space, we stayed and adapted the service. Your cleaning budget goes down from the very next month.
Slow, careful and built to last
We chose to join this Summit as partners because Privy is led by a woman CEO who built a premium company from the ground up, with care, discipline and a rare sense for people.
A stress-free zone
Privy is a stress-free zone for our clients and, above all, for our team. Our people are our partners and the heart of our story. Together we build care, trust and happiness, and bring light to dozens of offices across Berlin every day. We are a small utopia, proud to walk beside you as your ideas grow, with an open heart.
WHEN IT MATTERED MOST · 2020
How we protected our clients in the pandemic.
MID-FEBRUARY 2020
We closed the offices in our care, weeks before the official lockdown. Our founder trained in pandemic protocols on cruise ships.
SUPPLIES SECURED
We ordered early. Our clients had no shortage of supplies for a full year.
NO WORK, NO INVOICE
We paused every invoice. Our clients asked us to take on extra work instead: parquet, sofas, carpets, windows.
THE RESULT
Not one COVID case in the offices we care for. Our clients and investors stood by us, as we stood by them.
FOUNDED BY A WOMAN · BUILT ON TRUST
Fourteen years of quality and excellence.
Kostadinka “Dina” Staleva founded Privy Berlin in 2012. She brought more than 27 years of international hospitality experience, from hotels and yachts to cruise ships, with work in Singapore and Miami and diplomas from two colleges in management and hospitality.
Privy has never advertised. Every client came to us through a recommendation, and our clients stay with us for the quality of our work. Our people stay for years, and so do our clients.
