univativ Schweiz AG opens new office in Base
06/04/2018
Basel (Switzerland) / Darmstadt (Germany), 06 April 2018 – univativ Schweiz AG, a Triton portfolio company, has opened a second office in Basel on the 1st of April, 2018. The company is a personnel service provider specialized on the junior-staff segment.
Since entering the Swiss market and opening its Zürich office in 2015, the company has experienced consistent growth. This expansion is in line with univativ Group’s growth strategy, which builds upon the company’s 19 current locations in Switzerland and Germany.
“Our business model is unique in the Swiss Service Sector. More and more companies recognise the benefits of the flexible placement of juniors, therefore leading to an increased amount of requests from customers outside the Zürich area. Personal on-site support is a key advantage for both our customers and applicants. Furthermore, Basel as domicile for the pharmaceutical and logistics industry, holds attractive growth potential. For us, the new office is just the next logical step,” says Stephan Zehnder, chairman of the board and managing director of univativ’s first international affiliate.
“Our new location in Basel is an important milestone to establish our services in the Swiss market,” says Olaf Kempin, co-founder and managing director of the univativ Group. “As a market leader in German speaking Europe, we want to enhance the presence of univativ Group. Regional expansion is an important part of our growth strategy, one which we would like to actively promote with this step.”
