Active Staffing acquires Orlando-based Employment Geeks
Employment service pioneers bringing proven approach to central Florida
Active Staffing Services, a New York-based professional workforce solutions company with offices around the nation, announced today that it has acquired Orlando-based Employment Geeks.
Employment Geeks specializes in a broad range of industries, including office administrative work, custodial, transportation, and food industries.
“We are very excited to bring Employment Geeks into our service family,” said Active Staffing CEO Benjamin Elzweig. “Their commitment to helping clients employ the best people in a wide range of work settings aligns perfectly with our rapidly growing business approach.”
The move marks Active Staffing’s first company acquisition in Orlando, but its second in Florida. They also have offices in New Jersey, Florida, Texas and Georgia.
Since 1947, the company has worked to connect workers with employers using a personal approach and top technology. With 16 branches around the country and projected revenue topping more than $75 million this year, Active Staffing is a fast-growing company that placed 7,000 temporary workers last year.
Active Staffing’s services range from executive searches to food production, factory work, office, retail and transportation.
Employment Geeks Executive Recruiter Paulo Bento has agreed to remain with the company as co-owner of the new venture, guiding its continued growth in the region.
“Active Staffing are true pioneers of the industry,” Bento said. “Through this partnership, we look forward to shaking-up our market and advancing our mission of better servicing our clients and candidates at an accelerated pace. I’m excited to be part of this next chapter.”
Active Staffing Services is owned and managed by the Elzweig family, operating as a family business employing nearly 100 people. Active Staffing Services puts more than 2,000 people to work nationwide each week.
The company’s philosophy is simple: provide staffing solutions that improve the lives of clients, associates, and staff.
