WHITESBORO — First Choice Staffing announced it will expand and relocate its Utica–area office to Colonial Plaza in Whitesboro from its current location in New Hartford, effective June 2.
To celebrate the new location, at 131 Oriskany Blvd., a ribbon-cutting ceremony with the Greater Utica Chamber of Commerce will be held at 11 a.m. that day. It’s open to the public.
“Our business is growing and changing with technology; this is being accentuated by the revitalization of the economy in our area. This new location will give us much needed space for our expanding staff and services and puts us into a more central location with quicker access for our customers and employees. It will also give our employees more convenient access to other service businesses in the area that complement ours,” Lynn Loomis, vice president at First Choice Staffing, said in a news release. “We have included space in our new offices for our clients use that will allow them to interview and test applicants with privacy for sensitive positions, or if their own office doesn’t have an area that is suitable for this purpose. Many of our clients have requested this and now we have a space specifically for their use.”
