Growing ACS network gains larger US headquarters
ACS opened its first US office in 2004; now it boasts nine and foresees continued expansion across the region. It has had to move its Long Island headquarters into considerably larger premises.
A larger HQ will allow ACS to continue to grow its US team and support its regional network says Richard Thompson.

Air Charter Service has expanded its US headquarters in order to facilitate the future growth of its nine offices across the region. The long-running project of moving ACS's second largest office comes off the back of its most successful year in 2018. 
ACS Americas president Richard Thompson comments: “Last year ACS Americas arranged just shy of 6,000 charter contracts across the nine offices and saw revenue of more than $250 million. This expansion was essential as our HQ supports the ever-growing network of offices across the region; three of the nine have opened in the past two years and we have more planned in the near future. 
“In 2004 we opened our first US office here in a small shopfront premises on Long Island; now there are more than 50 of us in our Long Island headquarters, and we are continually expanding, another reason for the move to these new offices. 
“The project to move here has taken almost a year to complete, in order for it to be as seamless as possible. The new office has 20,000 square feet, more than double the floor space of our previous premises. We now have the space to allow us to grow and expand our sales, operations, HR, accounts, legal and customer experience teams.”
