In Business: Patrice & Associates Grows in Greater Phoenix

Patrice & Associates, a leading hospitality and corporate staffing franchise, is growing in the Greater Phoenix with Arizona franchisee Sabrina Demetriades.

Demetriades, a recent Arizona State University graduate, has observed a growing issue in society: qualified individuals facing challenges in securing suitable employment. Through her venture with Patrice & Associates, she aims to address this concern by utilizing technology, networking and innovative hiring solutions.

Demetriades believes the company's distinct features, such as nationwide reach, proprietary tools and personalized approaches, set it apart in hospitality recruitment and other sectors. Based in Scottsdale, Arizona, with territories in the Greater Phoenix Area, she strategically positioned her business in a thriving entrepreneurial ecosystem, citing her strong ties to the region as a significant strength.

“Basing ourselves in Scottsdale, Arizona, but also purchasing territory in the Greater Phoenix Area of Mesa, Gilbert, Buckeye and Peoria, was a strategic move,” she said. “Scottsdale is my home and has been for almost my entire life. The relationships that I have built here and my familiarity with the area and its surrounding ones is a great strength.”

With a background in finance and management, Demetriades believes recruiting allows her to leverage her skills, aiming to make a meaningful impact on both candidates and clients. She attributes her work ethic and commitment to education to her immigrant parents, who believed in the boundless opportunities the United States offered for a better life.
