George S. Hall, Inc., better known as GSH Group, a global integrated facilities management company is celebrating 125 years of service this year. Founded in 1895 in Stoke-on-Trent, England, GSH remains a family-owned and operated company by the Hall Family. The founder, Mr. George Scarr-Hall, established GSH to provide quality facilities management and building engineering services to the growing real estate industry at the turn of the 20th century. The company survived in Europe through two World Wars and continued to grow geographically to the point of now operating on three continents — Europe, North America (in 1996), and India (in 2012).integrated facilities management

GSH employs over 5,000 people globally while delivering service on a local, national, and global basis. The company’s strong reputation and diverse capabilities enables it to service large multi-faceted portfolios while providing creative cost-savings, subject matter expertise, and robust operations and preventive maintenance management.

GSH takes pride in being a private, family-owned company. Their overall goal is to please customers by providing clients with custom-tailored solutions and understanding their needs and goals, instead of a “one size fits all” approach.
