The OCS Group, which employs approximately 22,000 people across various operations in India, is currently looking at developing new client base in the Indian market. “India is a powerhouse in the global economy and soon will be a major contributor to our global turnover. We are targeting the hospitality market, which is huge and has the potential to generate large revenue volumes for us in India.
We can now directly deliver core facilities management services such as engineering, cleaning, hygiene, security and other facility management services to Indian clients without appointing multiple subcontractors,” informed, Chris Cracknell, Chief Executive Officer, OCS Group.
