Leisure Connection's hospitality arm reports increase in profits

Hotel and Facilities Management by Leisure Connection (HFM), an operator of outsourced leisure facilities within the private and hotel sector, has reported a 200 per cent increase in profits - just a year after a commercial restructure of the business.

The company, which is part of management company Leisure Connection, also announced an 87.5 per cent increase in membership numbers across its nine sites.

As a result, HFM has invested £20,000 in creating a new corporate identity to further market its services in the hospitality sector.

Steve Bambury, head of hotels at Leisure Connection, said: "We felt that it was time to refresh the brand to reflect the quality, contemporary and effective service we provide for hoteliers. We're confident the new look will help us in our penetration of the hotel industry into 2013."
