During the long weekend, Zello announced the purchase of Business Health Limited, marking its first U.K. acquisition. 

Launched in 2008, Business Health Limited is a provider of occupational healthcare services in the United Kingdom, servicing both local and global clients in manufacturing, civil services, financial, legal, HR and educational industries. 

Headquartered in the United Arab Emirates, Zello is a global health services and technology innovator specializing in monitoring the health and well-being of both clients’ people and operations. Zello delivers solutions to create healthier employees, safer workplaces and more productive workplaces through performance solutions and innovative technologies. 

The move will see Zello bring more accessible and affordable occupational health and wellbeing services to small- and medium-sized businesses across the United Kingdom. Dr. Andrew Dickson, currently managing director of Business Health, will take up a strategic role as senior medical director EMEA (covering Europe, Middle East and Africa) and help expand Zello’s international service and technology solutions. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. 

According to data captured in the LevinPro HC database, this transaction marks the second occupational health acquisition of 2024. On January 2, Sterling Check Corp. announced its acquisition of Vault Workforce Screening, a leading U.S. clinic management platform, for an undisclosed price. Throughout 2023, there were 19 occupational health acquisitions reported.
