Facility services provider Atlas Group has acquired Ayrshire-based Confida FM and Two Counties, a specialist supplier of cleaning services in Southern England.
The acquisitions adds 700 employees in Scotland and around 1,000 in England, expanding the group to over 11,000 people.
Confida holds contracts with Merck and Thermo Fisher, as well as public sector bodies including East Ayrshire Council – with its merger with Atlas providing further potential to target opportunities UK-wide.
We already offer high quality services to our clients, but Confida’s strength in Scotland and Two Counties’ operations in southern England mean that we can offer more resilience and range of services than ever before.
Two Counties works with many schools, medical centres, holiday parks, leisure facilities and industrial sites throughout Hampshire and Dorset. The company also has long-standing contracts with local authorities and NHS properties.
Atlas Group managing director, Chris Wisely, says: “Confida and Two Countries bring excellent people and contracts into the Atlas family. We already offer high quality services to our clients, but Confida’s strength in Scotland and Two Counties’ operations in southern England mean that we can offer more resilience and range of services than ever before.”
Commercial operations director for Confida FM, Lorraine Brophy, says: “Since we founded Confida we have endeavoured to put relationship-building and problem-solving at the heart of driving better facilities management. We are fully aligned with Atlas’ aim to put happiness at the centre of service delivery, and we see an opportunity to really accelerate our growth as part of a wider family of businesses.”
Director of Two Counties Cleaning Services, Trevor Jackson, adds: “We are very happy to join the Atlas group and benefit from the growth opportunities ahead of us. We believe in delivering an ever-better quality of services and are already working with colleagues across Atlas to enhance cleaning solutions for our valued customers.”
