Major new contract in France in the healthcare sector for the Rekeep Group
A new order for cleaning services at Institut Imagine, part of the renowned Necker-Enfants Malades hospital.
The Rekeep Group announces that it has been awarded a major new contract in France for cleaning services at Institut Imagine, part of the renowned Necker-Enfants Malades hospital.
The Contract has a term of 4 years and a total value of about Euro 1.5 million.
The new order confirms the Group's strategy of international growth and development in a very attractive sector such as services supporting healthcare activities, which generates about 60% of the consolidated turnover of Rekeep and approximately 77% of foreign turnover, with more than 500 facilities served in Italy, Poland, France and Turkey.
In addition, the award further strengthens the Group's work in France with a new order gained in the country shortly after obtaining a contract for cleaning and bio-cleaning services at the nine facilities of the Versailles Hospital Center, as well as certain major contracts signed with SNCF in the transport sector for soft facility management services on lines in the Montrouge area and at 14 stations in Normandy and with RATP for cleaning services at the 17 main Paris metro stations (intermodal hubs).
The Institut Imagine is the leading research, care and teaching centre for genetic diseases. With the mission of understanding and curing these diseases, the Institute brings together 1,000 of the best doctors, researchers and healthcare staff in an architecture designed by Bernard Valéro and Jean Nouvel to create synergies. This unprecedented continuum of expertise, combined with proximity to patients, enables the Institute Imagine to make discoveries for the benefit of patients. The 7,000 or so genetic diseases identified affect 30 million patients in Europe, and nearly 3 million in France, where there are 30,000 new cases each year.
Claudio Levorato, Chairman of the Rekeep Group, has commented as follows: “This contract is a further demonstration of Rekeep's high competence in delivering cleaning services in the healthcare sector, as well as of its ability to grow worldwide, which is driven, in particular, by know-how in high value-added sectors and the ability to manage essential services for critical infrastructures such as transport and hospital facilities."
