Vodafone agrees £250 million outsourcing contract

Bristol-based company will provide outsourced services including engineering maintenance, couriers and pest services

Vodafone has extended its relationship with outsourcing company Mitie after the two firms agreed a £250 million deal.

The five-year contract will see Mitie manage a range of services at Vodafones retail outlets, mobile telephone exchanges and offices.

These include workplace management, travel management, energy management, cleaning, mailroom and couriers, landscaping and helpdesk services.

Bristol-based Mitie also won the contract to run the UK’s immigration centres last month. The 27 year old firm posted pre-tax profits of £127.5 million last year, on revenues of £2.14 billion.
