Atlas Signs New Five-Year Contract With Arsenal Football Club
28 November 2023 | Updated 30 November 2023
 

Atlas will continue to provide soft FM services for Arsenal Football Club for five years.

The FM provider will work across the football club’s estate, including Emirates Stadium, Highbury House, London Colney, and Hale End, providing cleaning services. The team is made up of 100 per cent directly employed cleaning operatives who are permanently based at the various sites.

The Emirates Stadium can host over 60,000 spectators, making it one of the largest stadiums in the country. Highbury House is the club’s official corporate office and is located located north-east of the stadium. London Colney is the team’s training ground and Hale End is where the youth academy is located.

Atlas started working with Arsenal in 2017 to improve the fan and visitor experience through high cleaning standards and customer service. It deploys modern cleaning equipment, electric vehicles and chemical-free cleaning to improve post-event recovery times.

Atlas also works with the Arsenal Foundation and Arsenal in the Community to recruit local residents and run volunteering programmes with The Holloway Neighbourhood Group.

Chris Wisely, Group Managing Director of Atlas said: “We are delighted to have renewed our contract with Arsenal. We are proud of our collaborative partnership and look forward to further enhancing the visitor experience and adding value.”
