Our History

WorkForce Unlimited was founded in 1987 by Teresa Lewis of Mount Airy, North Carolina to meet the seasonal demands of local companies.

As our company grew, we expanded our service offerings to meet the changing demands of our clients. We adopted the name WorkForce Unlimited in 2014 to represent our company’s strength, diversity, and capacity for growth.

In 2016, we added divisions to meet the changing needs of our clients. AREVO Group was born, and WorkForce Unlimited is proud to be a part of the AREVO Group family of companies. 2020 brought a new look and feel to the brand.
