UK Contract Wins
Eckoh secures six sizeable UK contracts
Benefits of restructured UK sales function coming through with
new, larger UK accounts
Eckoh plc (AIM:ECK), the global provider of secure payment
products and customer contact solutions, has since interim results
on November 22(nd) 2017 secured six sizeable UK contract wins
across the payments, insurance, healthcare and mobile telecoms
sectors - the latter being a contract with one of the UK's largest
mobile network providers.
Eckoh previously indicated at its interim results that the
restructuring of its UK sales function would ensure a greater focus
on larger strategic accounts, leveraging the strength of the entire
Eckoh product portfolio, and that the benefits of the restructuring
would come through in the second half. Today's announcement
demonstrates that the Company has begun to see the positive impact
of this initiative as these contract wins constitute a mix of both
secure payments and customer contact solutions, and the pipeline of
UK business is strong.
Commenting on the UK contract wins, Nik Philpot, Chief Executive
Officer Eckoh plc, adds:
"We are very pleased with the recent progress we have made in
the UK, with strong demand for both our secure payments offering
and our customer contact solutions. Having committed the time and
resource to restructure our UK sales function to focus on larger,
more strategic accounts, the contracts won are a welcome validation
of our strategy."
