shufti relocates

March 2021, Shufti is pleased to announce the relocation of its London office to a larger and more lively  premises.  Shufti is globally acclaimed for its AI-powered identity verification services offered in 230+ countries and territories.

Headquartered in London, UK, Shufti first opened an office at 35 Little Russell Street WC1A 2HH in October 2017. Since then, it has experienced a global expansion with regional offices in Cyprus, Dubai, and Sweden. Now after three years, Shufti is relocating its head office to 8 One Canada Square, Canary Wharf, London E14 5AB. 

Over the past three years, Shufti has experienced a rapid business growth globally. From the first half of 2020 to 2021,  Shufti has witnessed a tremendous growth in its clientele and sales which calls for a more vigorous team of experts to cater to the company needs. With this remarkable achievement, the company has decided to move to a more lively and larger facility to smoothly perform business operations and expand our team of professionals.

This new location represents the innovative work culture at Shufti and aims to provide an exceptional environment for the employees. Surrounded by a lively and peaceful neighbourhood, the employees can have a peace of mind and will be more efficient and productive. One Canada Square is known for its great corporate environment and this skyscraper accommodates hundreds of businesses. 

Shufti believes this relocation is another addition to their already successful journey. “We are thrilled to relocate to our new and larger office in One Canada Square, Canary Wharf, London”, says CEO of Shufti, Victor Fredung, “We believe this move to be a breakthrough for our fast-growing company. The larger office will now provide a more pleasant environment to our employees to keep them motivated and increase their productivity.”
