AdEPT Telecom Plc
("AdEPT Telecom" or the "Company")
Award of Contract
AdEPT Telecom has won a voice and data contract with the Italian food and cafe chain Carluccio's Plc ("Carluccio's"). The contract is anticipated to be worth £250k in revenues over the next two years. Carluccio's has 40 restaurants within the UK and is on track to open 5 new outlets by September 2009.
Carluccio's was founded in 1991 by Antonio and Priscilla Carluccio with the aim of offering quality, authentic Italian food at reasonable price. Despite the bleak high street conditions, Carluccio's total turnover in the 17 weeks to January 25 was 14% ahead of last year and in line with management expectations.
AdEPT Telecom has been trialing products across several sites for the past 12 months and is delighted to have won the contract to roll out their products to the whole group.
Joe Murphy, Head of Partner Channel at AdEPT Telecom said "Carluccio's impressive expansion over the past 3 years is set to continue in 2009 with AdEPT playing an important part".
