History

Servcorp was founded by Alfred Moufarrige in 1978. In 1980 Servcorp pioneered the virtual office concept.[5] In 1990, Servcorp expanded to Singapore, then throughout South East Asia,[6] France and Japan.[3] Servcorp was listed on the Australian Stock Exchange in 1999.

In 1999, Servcorp launched its first chinese offices in Shanghai.[7]

In 2003, Servcorp was the leading Australian employer in Japan with 130 Tokyo staff.[8]

Servcorp opened its first United Kingdom office in 2009. It opened its first United States location in 2010.[3]

In April 2014, Servcorp opened new offices in Beijing's Fortune Financial Center.[7] In August 2014, Servcorp signed a 15-year lease for the 85th floor of the One World Trade Center.[9]

In July 2015, Servcorp went through a PR nightmare in Malaysia when it displayed an ad on a billboard with their mascot, a wombat, wishing people a happy ramadan. The wombat was mistaken with a pig, thus the offence.[10]

In February 2016, Servcorp turned to the bubsiness version of Dropbox to provide a file-sharing solution to its employees.[11] In May 2016, Servcorp opened its first offices in Tehran, Iran.[12]
