Charged-up for a Deal

16 June 2016 | Updated 01 January 1970

Contract cleaning and ‘soft’ services provider Facilicom UK has secured a contract with the US owned electric vehicles company Tesla UK.

Working with its partners Facilicom will provide cleaning and maintenance services to all Tesla’s UK sites including showrooms at Brent Cross, Heathrow Airport, Oxford Street (London), Westfield Shopping Centre in Stratford and Weybridge in Surrey.

The new contract is with Tesla Motors which was founded in 2003 by a group of engineers in California’s Silicon Valley and who wanted to prove that electric cars could be better than cars powered by petrol or diesel.

“We’re delighted to be working with such an innovative and dynamic company, especially as Tesla’s mission is to ‘accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable transport’,” declared Jan-Hein Hemke, MD, Fallicom. “This environmental goal is echoed by our own sustainability approach, including our C2Zero programme to measure, reduce and offset our carbon emissions. When looking to buy one of these state of the art cars, customers expect a pristine and pleasant environment and that’s what our operatives will provide.”
