The leading textile service company Elis, operating in Veddesta, Stockholm, has entered into a significant collaboration with Marketpeople, a prominent recruitment company specializing in AI & tech-driven recruitment. This partnership will strengthen Elis in Veddesta’s recruitment of Service Men (drivers who deliver and pick up carpets at Elis’ customers) and ensure they have full access to the best candidates in the market.

Elis provides comprehensive rental solutions for hygiene and textile services. Hundreds of thousands of workwear, carpets, wiping cloths, bed, bath, and table textiles circulate daily between Elis laundries and customers in healthcare, industry, trade, cleanrooms, hotels, and restaurants. Through logistics and textile care, the usage of each garment and textile is optimized, minimizing the need for new production. This approach leads the way in the circular transition, a model Elis has followed for over 70 years.

Marketpeople, with its extensive expertise in AI-driven recruitment, has the ability to streamline and improve recruitment processes significantly.

One of the crucial advantages of this collaboration is that Marketpeople, with its technology and experience, can eliminate biases and preconceived notions from the recruitment process, thereby further enhancing Elis’ sustainability efforts.

The new partnership between Elis Veddesta and Marketpeople is a positive development for both parties. Elis gains a state-of-the-art and sustainable recruitment process, while Marketpeople strengthens its position as a leading player in AI-driven recruitment.

Magnus de Woul, CEO, Marketpeople
“It is a tremendous privilege to work so closely with Elis in Veddesta. We at Marketpeople believe in sustainability and contribute in our sector, Talent Acquisition, while Elis contributes with its extensive sustainability work. Driving this collaboration is yet another confirmation that our service adds value to our clients’ businesses.”
