Discussing the MBO, Booth said:
“Buying Kore Solutions comes at an exciting time for the business as we look to build on our existing customer base, while continuing to develop into new and emerging technologies.
“Our success is as a direct consequence of the hard work, experience and client understanding that our excellent team possesses. The people here have created a strong and loyal customer base, which has all combined to make Kore Solutions the successful business it is today.
“Now it’s time to take the business forward, with its healthy order book and a focused, ambitious strategic plan for growth for 2020 and beyond.”
