TeamStaff, Inc. Announces Relocation of Corporate Headquarters to Atlanta, GA

Posted on: Thursday, 22 June 2006, 12:00 CDT

ATLANTA, June 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- TeamStaff, Inc. , a national provider of healthcare staffing, today announced that it relocated its corporate headquarters to Atlanta, GA, effective immediately. TeamStaff's company headquarters is now located in the mid-town Atlanta area at 1545 Peachtree Street, Suite 340, Atlanta, GA, 30309.

Previously, TeamStaff's headquarters was in Somerset, NJ. The relocation of the Company's headquarters comes after TeamStaff's sale of DSi in Somerset. TeamStaff CEO and Atlanta-native T. Kent Smith stated, "One reason for the move of TeamStaff's headquarters is the sale of DSi in Somerset. This move also reflects the change of the Company's geographic focus over the last two years. We chose the Atlanta Midtown area for airport proximity for our two travel businesses in Clearwater, FL and Memphis, TN and the proximity of our RS Staffing location in Monroe, GA, which is just outside of Atlanta."

Some of TeamStaff's key executives have a long history in the Atlanta area. Some of those include: Atlanta native and CEO, T. Kent Smith, who joined TeamStaff, Inc. as the Company's President and CEO in June 2003, and who previously was the President and CEO of the Honey Baked Ham and Heavenly Ham Companies, respectively (Atlanta, GA); T. Stephen Johnson, who is the Company's Chairman of the Board since September 2001 and is a long time banking consultant and Atlanta entrepreneur, advising and organizing dozens of community banks throughout the Southeast; and Ben J. Dyer, who is a member of the company's board of directors since December 2002 and is currently president of investment banking firm Jackson Capital and President of Innovations Publishing, LLC, both companies based in Atlanta, GA.
