Hosco, the World’s Leading Hospitality Network, Acquires h-g-r to Accelerate Growth
Barcelona, Spain (PRWEB) November 07, 2016 -- Founded in 2004 by Jeff Ross, h-g-r is one of the first specialized online job boards for the hospitality industry. To date, h-g-r has helped over 20,000 talents and 400 high-end employers meet and interact.
In the upcoming months, hosco will gradually integrate h-g-r’s portfolio of candidates, employers and collaborating hotel schools around the globe.
“The matching of employers and talents in hospitality is still very inefficient and highly fragmented with numerous local players. In parallel to our geographic expansion, acquisitions like h-g-r’s will play a critical role in our journey to regroup the world’s fastest growing and most international industry together online,” said Olivier Bracard, Co-Founder & CEO of hosco.
“h-g-r was a strong candidate as our missions and target audiences have always been aligned. The potential to service our users grows strongly by integrating what Jeff and his team at h-g-r have built since 2004,” adds Carl Julien, Co-Founder & COO of hosco.
"This is such an exciting moment in the 12-year history of h-g-r, and I couldn't imagine a better partner than hosco," said Jeff Ross. "In hosco, we have found a great match who shares our vision and passion for making real change in talents’ professional lives through access to jobs, connections and learning opportunities."
