The company also operates free to use online directories, Directenquiries.com, Inclusivebritain.com and Inclusivelondon.com - the Mayor of London’s official information portal for the 2012 games and its legacy. These sites provide access information for people with specific access requirements such as disabled and older people and parents with children.
The acquisition provides a strong platform for growth in the compliance, risk assessment, disability and access industries, as well as providing significant cross-selling opportunities within MITIE's existing service offering.
Ruby McGregor-Smith, Chief Executive, MITIE Group PLC, commenting on the acquisition, said: "We are all delighted to have acquired a majority shareholding in Direct Enquiries through our Entrepreneurs Fund. This acquisition demonstrates our continued commitment to and interest in disadvantaged groups, whilst recognising the increasing importance of building compliance legislation and risk management to our clients."
