MARTIN, TENN. (July 27, 2007) – The Hamilton-Ryker Group is proud to announce the expansion of operations into Louisiana with the recent opening of its first branch in Baton Rouge. Focusing primarily on staffing for industrial and manufacturing companies, Hamilton-Ryker of Louisiana, LLC, will be led by Misty A. Bergeron, who will serve as president and oversee the expansion of Hamilton-Ryker branches throughout Louisiana.
“We are thrilled to have such a quality administrator join our team,” said Kelly McCreight, vice president of the Hamilton-Ryker Company. “With Misty leading our Louisiana operations, we have great confidence our future of our expansion into the state.”
