Redeem sets out overseas growth plan worth £7m
The Bathgate firm, which last year acquired mobile phone recycler Envirofone, has operations in Dubai, Estonia, Hong Kong and Spain, and is seeking a move into other markets including Canada and Germany.
Chief financial officer Oliver Tedcastle said: “We have been growing our international presence for some time now. This facility will allow the business to make significant progress in new markets while at the same time maintaining a focus on our core UK market where we continue to see plenty of opportunities for organic growth.”
