Business hub welcomes latest new arrival

Oberoi Business Hub has welcomed another new arrival to its growing community of start-ups, SMEs and national firms.

AHP Group, which consists of AHP Healthcare, AHP Homecare, AHP Supported Living and AHP Recruitment, has become the latest to take space at the Pride Park-based hub.

The business is expanding after establishing the award-winning healthcare recruitment agency in Essex with its sister company SRP Healthcare.

AHP Healthcare the company places agency nurses and support staff into care homes and supports private clients with care at home services under AHP Homecare.

AHP Recruitment also supplies HGV drivers and warehousing staff to a range of customers and future growth plans include the introduction of supply teachers and support staff for schools, hospitality and construction industries.

Director Sheel Phakey, who runs AHP Group alongside his wife and son, said: “The family is from the East Midlands, and we know the area well, so we were keen to come back to our roots in the next stage of our company growth.

“Pride Park has excellent transport links with plenty of parking on site.

“We are looking forward to capitalising on the buoyant economy in the East Midlands – both in the expanding healthcare sector and the new opportunities that are taking place in warehousing and logistics across the region.”

Jodie Brady, manager of Oberoi Business Hub, said: “Our goal is to provide high quality yet affordable business premises with a prestigious address and a wide range of services that facilitate growth and job creation in the local area.

“Throughout this year, we have welcomed many new customers and received requests for additional office space and services from our existing customers, which is a reflection of continued business confidence and is good news for the whole city and surrounding area.”
