LaLa World’s FMML’s acquisition of FMML is a part of its planned expansionary roadmap to drive greater adoption of its services through global partnerships. The strategy also includes leveraging existing infrastructure, engaging corporate houses, NGOs, governments, local companies, and distributors to improve the options available to the 9.5MM migrant workforce that resides in the UK.
