I’m assuming that you do not own the data center.

Considering that, for certification purposes, you need to define at least one physical location which belongs to the organization. This one can be the address of the CEO's home, or some office rented by the organization for administrative purposes(like the company HQ).

Since you are a remote company, you should define your scope in terms of the data you want to protect (i.e., the physical data center should be excluded, but the data hosted in this data center should be included) and exclude all remote sites.
