TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras, Oct. 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (NASDAQ: IBEX), a leading global provider of business process outsourcing (BPO) and customer engagement technology solutions, today announced a significant expansion of its operations in Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras. This expansion underscores ibex’s commitment to growth in the region and strengthens its nearshore strategy.
ibex has officially added almost 10,000 square feet of space to its real estate footprint in Honduras. The expanded facility now includes more than 180 additional production seats, representing a 35% increase in operational capacity. The space also features additional recreational areas, offices and training spaces, demonstrating ibex's dedication to creating a supportive and productive work environment for its employees.
ibex's expanded operations in Honduras are expected to create approximately 250 new job opportunities, further contributing to the local economy. The new space became operational in mid-September, with the frontline team successfully handling its first calls. ibex anticipates full utilization of the upgraded space in the coming month.
“Our continued investment in Honduras reflects ibex’s unwavering commitment to the country and reinforces our successful nearshore strategy. I want to extend my gratitude to all team members who contributed their time and effort in bringing this project to fruition,” said Bob Dechant, CEO of ibex. “Our increased presence in Honduras is not only creating valuable employment opportunities, but also strengthening our ability to deliver high-quality services to our global clients.

The expansion comes on the heels of an impressive year of growth for ibex Honduras. In fiscal year 2024, the office saw a remarkable 249% increase in headcount, reflecting the rapid scaling of operations in the country. This growth has been driven by the introduction of new lines of business and clients within the Fintech vertical, as well as an expansion into HR support services.
