Bahrain Financial Harbour Holding Company (BFHHC) announced the commencement of operations of its first client, Servcorp, the provider of the world’s finest serviced and virtual offices.

The instant office solutions provider has taken the entire 22nd floor, in the west tower in the Financial Centre of the Bahrain Financial Harbour (BFH) covering an area of 1008sqm.  Servcorp was also the first client of BFHHC to conclude the fit-outs at the premises.
Welcoming Servcorp at the BFH, Stephen Rothel, chief executive officer, BFHHC said: “It gives me immense delight in welcoming Servcorp aboard and I congratulate them on being the first client to get a first-hand experience of the integrated world-class business environment on offer at BFH.
“We are confident that this should complement Servcorp’s own business philosophy of setting new benchmarks in the high-quality services. I hope to see Servcorp and the other early clients using their new premises in the Harbour Towers as a springboard to launch themselves into a new phase of spectacular growth in the region.”
Established, in 1978, Servcorp’s first serviced offices were opened in Sydney, Australia. Today this has grown into a global network of exceptional office facilities.
Its refusal to compromise on high standards has been one of the crucial factors for its success.
Servcorp’s business philosophy has remained unchanged in the last three decades.
Commenting on the launch of its Middle East operations from BFH, Taine Moufarrige, executive director, Servcorp said: “The opening of the office in the Harbour Towers, is a significant decision with regard to Servcorp’s expansion into the region and we are excited to be the first ones in doing so.
“With the Kingdom of Bahrain being one of the frontrunners in terms of the economic growth in the Middle East, BFH was the natural route for us to enter Bahrain.
“Considering that our business is that of providing high-quality office space for businesses which need it, we could not have chosen a more high-profile building with a dynamic business environment, than the one which BFH has to offer. Our choice stands vindicated by the strong global response that BFH has elicited.
“Today, Servcorp represents the convenience of an up-to-date corporate infrastructure and a professional office support team – all at the lowest possible cost.”
The offices provided by Servcorp are fully operational instantly.
In addition to Bahrain the company has a presence in Australia, New Zealand, Japan, China, South East Asia, the UAE and Europe.
Laudy Lahdo, senior manager Middle East, Servcorp said: “The response from the business community in Bahrain, the region and internationally has been phenomenal.
“The commitment to lease office space in Servcorp prior to our opening is a true reflection of the prestigious BFH Development and its position in the future of Bahrain.”

We enjoy assisting local and multi-national corporations develop a competitive advantage through the supply of state-of-the-art corporate offices.”
