In February 2020, the company rebranded as Unifi.[3]

In August 2023, a lawsuit was filed against Unifi by a passenger who witnessed its employee commit suicide on the job in June 2023 by placing himself to be sucked into the engine of a Delta Air Lines plane at San Antonio International Airport.[4] The aggrieved states she witnessed the employee getting torn apart by the engine. It is noted that the deceased had given a suicide note to his supervisor prior to the incident.[1]

Unifi provides services such as aircraft ground handling and has around 25,000 employees.[2]
