Agilit茅 set up its UK division in 2019 and has done various shopfitting jobs here to date but has only now opened its own physical office 鈥 in Bowling Green Lane, London EC1.

Agilit茅 directly employs nine people in the UK, including country head Daniel Hunt, a former regional director at Aecom, and newly-appointed commercial manager Nicholas Perry, who was previously commercial manager at ISG.

Agilit茅 UK turned over just 鈧1.5m in 2022, increasing to 鈧5.5m in 2023 鈥 with the firm targeting 鈧11m this year.

Managing director Neil Coales said: 鈥淟ondon is still the major financial capital of Europe and the market here is huge 鈥 not just in corporate office space, but in retail, leisure and hospitality, too. That鈥檚 why many US brands that want to 鈥榗rack鈥 Europe will arrive in London first.

鈥淎gilit茅 is by no means new to the UK 鈥 having delivered over 35 projects here in the last 18 months 鈥 but we want to be able to offer pan-European fit out services that understand the local market, economy and supply chain because we鈥檙e living and breathing it, too.鈥
