ABOUT EES

CREATE. IMPROVE. REFINE.

How we got started

English Editorial Solutions (EES) was established in 2015 out of the need to address the growing demand for high-quality copywriting, editing, and proofreading services in Hong Kong. EES was founded by a small team of freelance editors who had worked together on various projects in the past. Being a diverse group of editors, we knew that we had great potential in our industry. After many late-night chats and meetings over coffee, we decided to begin the process of forming EES.

Our mission

Since 2015, EES has continued to provide high-quality copywriting, editing, proofreading, and translation services both internationally and throughout the region. We have a vast portfolio of satisfied customers who continue to use EES as their go‑to editors. The future prospects of EES is exciting, and we look forward to working together in the near future. Until then, we’ll continue our mission of creating, improving, and refining your content.

Our values

The inspiration behind our name was quite simple. We wanted to create something that would be instantly recognisable to our customers – hence our simple logo and title. The little green quill in the middle of our logo represents our respect for Mother Nature, as the majority of our work is done online. We pride ourselves in our accuracy, transparency, and professionalism for any project, regardless of client or scale of project.
