About from company website
Founded in 1966 as Fisher Shopfitters, First in Service has evolved into a comprehensive facilities management provider. Initially specializing in bespoke shopfitting, the company expanded in 1976 to offer mechanical services and maintenance, growing its client base across industrial, retail, and commercial sectors. By 1994, First in Service had broadened its expertise to include air conditioning commissioning and catering equipment installation, notably supporting the expansion of major brands like McDonald's.
The 2000s saw national expansion, establishing nationwide coverage for multi-site clients in hospitality, healthcare, education, and the public sector, while retaining specialist data centre cooling knowledge. In the 2010s, the company integrated its services further, introducing structured Facilities Management delivery and becoming a principal FM contractor for data centres. The 2020s marked a rebranding to reflect a fully integrated service model across engineering, facilities management, and commercial cleaning, with continued investment in people, technology, sustainability, and compliance.
Today, First in Service offers a unified approach to commercial maintenance, covering HVAC, air conditioning, refrigeration, ventilation, catering equipment, gas, plumbing, and comprehensive facilities management. They emphasize a 24/7 helpdesk, dedicated contract support, and a commitment to keeping sites compliant and systems running efficiently.
