late last year, and when we identified this brand-new business park near Colchester, it became evident that it was the ideal location. Currently, we directly employ approximately 125 staff, and with these new premises, we anticipate doubling that figure within the next 18 months.”
The grand opening was accompanied by a series of special guests, including Sir Bernard Jenkin MP, the Conservative MP for Harwich and North Essex, and heavyweight boxing contender Moses Itauma, who were present to participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Visitors were also provided with guided tours of the new facility, enjoyed some delicious contemporary Indian cuisine, were entertained by a band flown in from Portugal, and
