GJK Facility Services has announced a 50/50 partnership agreement with Australian property maintenance and de-fit company, Pro1.
Elias Stamas, CEO of GJK Facility Services, said the partnership supports GJK’s overall growth and diversification strategy.
“It represents an important strategic milestone for our business that will enhance our service expertise and market leadership in facility services,” Stamas said.
“Their family values, focus on customer collaboration and technical expertise align well with our business ethos. Importantly, this partnership addresses a key piece of GJK’s growth strategy by expanding our core service capabilities, which will allow us to better serve our customers.”
Established in Victoria, Pro1 is a family-run property maintenance and de-fit business.
The company started in 2016 with six employees and has since grown to become a national, multi-skilled maintenance company.
Pro1 clients include JLL, Colliers, CBRE, GPT, Knight Frank, Australian Catholic University, Holden, Lendlease, Challenger, to name a few.
GJK currently provides a range of projects and maintenance services, however, it is known predominantly for its dominance in cleaning.
GJK said Pro1 will be assisting GJK to deliver its projects and maintenance services, while Pro1 benefits from shared service support.
Trent Hessell, Pro1 founding director and CEO, said GJK is the right partner to take Pro1 to the next level.
“Leveraging their strong support structure and customer base, we will be able to grow and expand our business even further,” Hessell said.
“GJK is a commercially robust business with a forward-thinking approach to delivering facility services. I look forward to a mutually beneficial partnership and delivering even better customer solutions”.
Pro1 will relocate to GJK’s head office in Collingwood. Pro1 is finalising the fit-out works of GJK’s warehouse to convert it into an open-plan office space for all employees.
