LSG 2021 Review: Nearshore Staffing Experts
It’s safe to say that 2021 has been a year of adjustment. During this year, many businesses have thrived and found strategies like nearshore staffing to incorporate into their operations in 2021.
At Lean Solutions Group, we are all about growth. Even through these challenging times, we have had the incredible opportunity to expand without limits and continue providing uninterrupted and high-quality services to our clients.
2021 Major Accomplishments in Nearshore Staffing
During 2021, we have grown in many ways. In our service offerings, new employees, new offices in strategic cities, and expanded to new and exciting countries.
Employee and Customer Growth
- We are now more than 6,000 employees.
At LSG, we have leveraged change and incorporated it into our business model. Remote work has become the new normality. Many candidates still prefer staying at home and having a home office rather than working at another location. Therefore, we have continued to recruit employees, and depending on the clients’ needs they have the option of working from the office or from home. This has allowed us to grow exponentially and add more talented professionals to our Lean Family.
In terms of overall growth within our Lean Staffing Domestic division, we grew 200% in 2021 and in the Freight Forwarding division, we had a total growth of 191%.
“At Lean Solutions Group, our main objective is to become a one-stop-shop for our clients, a company that can provide support for key functions within a company that reduces overhead and drives business growth. Reaching 6,000 employees shows the trust our clients have given us, which has allowed us to continue growing to meet their needs,” said, Robert Cadena, CEO of Lean Solutions Group.
- Client growth
We have onboarded 186 clients this year across all branches in the Lean Staffing Division.
Our Lean BPO Division, which just launched in August, signed 14 new accounts.
- At Lean Tech, we welcomed over new 195 developers!
Lean Tech, a division specializing in software development and IT Staffing, grew exponentially. We onboarded over 195 tech-savvy professionals from 7 countries to take on complex software projects and generate incredible results for our clients.
Management Certifications
- The LSG management team was certified with the Lean Six Sigma Green belt.
As we continue to grow, it’s essential to have a certified and talented management team to ensure a standardized operation to provide quality services for our clients. The Lean Six Sigma Green belt certification allows our management team to continue enhancing their skill set to become leaders who can handle crucial business development projects.
Service offering
- We launched Lean BPO.
At LSG, we are always searching for ways to enhance our service and provide a complete suite of solutions for our customers. We found that many of our customers required services like Business Process Outsourcing with professionals to take care of customer support, back-office, and other professional services. Therefore, with hard work and determination, we launched Lean BPO! Lean BPO has more than 50 job positions available and over 300 dedicated employees in just a few short months.

This is just the beginning of our expansion plan; we are eager to arrive at even more strategic countries of Latin America to provide opportunities for professionals and quality services for our clients.
New offices
