Your Philadelphia Area Recruitment Specialists
Philadelphia acts as a narrator of significant American history. The Liberty Bell and Independence Hall – where the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were signed – are only a few of the major historical attractions. But “Philly” is also a place that is passionate about food and culture. From a nationally recognized chef to an eatery with a legendary cheesesteak, the city can delight with anything from simple fare to upscale gourmet. The wealth of museums, the art scene, and one of the nation’s top zoos also draw in travel to the City of Brotherly Love; tourism has steadily increased since 2010, and the bulk of it is leisure driven. And with Atlantic City only an hour away, casinos are certainly part of the “things to do” conversation. The hotel inventory is now keeping up with the increase in demand, with new budget-friendly concepts and solidified luxury properties dotting the map. Besides these tourism-related industries, the Philadelphia area also has a significant food and beverage presence, especially when it comes to production and manufacturing businesses.
