PrideStaff Shifts Fort Myers Branch to Corporate Ownership

This transition coincides with the office securing a Best of Florida award in the employment agencies category, a recognition that highlights the branch’s existing rapport with local employers and job seekers. By bringing the unit in-house, leadership aims to scale these operations while maintaining the specialized, relationship-driven service that defined the office under its previous franchise structure.

Co-CEO Tammi Heaton noted that the acquisition signals confidence in the current local staff, characterizing the move as a foundation for future expansion. The company plans to leverage the office's recent accolades to bolster its footprint in the region, ensuring that clients receive the backing of a national firm without sacrificing the personalized service typical of smaller, independent agencies.
