“This move gives us access to a growing local economy, a skilled workforce and a strong strategic location, all of which will serve as a foundation for the continued expansion of our business. We have already started to recruit additional staff from Maidstone and the surrounding area.

“Since we launched Blackbox Solutions in 2012 we’ve experienced in excess of 100 per cent growth every year and we’re on track to reach £4m in turnover next financial year.”
