NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - April 14, 2016) - Staffing 360 Solutions, Inc. (
The move to a larger office space in London was completed as part of Staffing 360's Intelligent Integration approach for the Company's previously announced acquisition of The JM Group, one of the UK's leading recruitment firms for over the past 3 decades, and Longbridge, which represents the Company's existing international multi-sector recruitment division in the UK. Both brands will remain separate and distinct going forward, however, the combined layout will not only reduce redundancy, but is expected to result in over $30,000 in rent savings per month.
"This office combination in London is a very exciting development," stated Matt Briand, President and CEO of Staffing 360 Solutions. "Considering both offices were only a 5 minute walk away from each other, having all of our UK operations in one office has resulted in a much more efficient and unified environment. Not only will this reduce the cost of maintaining office space for approximately 50 staff members, the new office layout also allows us to bring new talent to our team through further expansion of available space at the existing location."
Staffing 360 Solutions' existing Longbridge operations were part of the Company's acquisition of Initio International Holdings Limited on January 3, 2014. Longbridge was established in 1989 in London, and is an international multi-sector recruitment company, with a long history of success catering to the sales & marketing, technology, legal and IT solutions sectors.
Likewise The JM Group acquisition provides IT workforce solutions to a diverse set of clients across the financial services, professional services and corporate sectors in the United Kingdom. Founded in 1981, The JM Group has been one of the UK's leading recruitment firms for over 3 decades and now boasts a run-rate of approximately $25 million in annualized revenue.
"Having completed the move at the beginning of the month, we couldn't be more pleased with the results thus far," stated Adam Drew, Finance & Operations Director of both Longbridge and The JM Group. "Joining forces under one roof has created a more dynamic office environment for us all, the enthusiasm from the sales staff has been contagious, and everyone is now part of a much larger, more modern and more bustling sales environment. We look forward to benefiting from the enhanced communication and team building synergies as we keep our laser focus on driving growth in 2016 and beyond."
Staffing 360 Solutions believes that a consolidation strategy is ideally suited for the highly fragmented temporary staffing industry. The management team has been engaged in the development of a comprehensive program to create a robust pipeline of prospective acquisitions, with a longer term objective of driving annual revenues to $300 million.
