HISTORY
Integrity Staffing Services, (ISS) originated in November 1995. The Corporate office is located at 615 Lynnhaven Pkwy, in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The South Military Highway branch is our oldest and largest location. This branch services all industry groups throughout the Southside Tidewater area. The Winchester office opened in March of 1992 and has successfully provided Light Industrial support to a broad base of clients in that region. Our Peninsula office opened in July of 1994 and is strong in light industrial, heavy industrial and shipyard support. In the fall of 2002, we expanded to Jacksonville, FL to support shipyard work for an existing client. We have remained there and broadened our base to include all industry groups in the surrounding area. We have more recently ventured into the Gulf, servicing port based logistic operations and we are exploring opportunities for branch operations to further support that area.
