Overseas expansion delivers £500m international sales for Crewe-based Radius Payment Solutions

Fleet services provider Radius Payment Solutions has achieved £500m in international sales after growing its footprint overseas.

The Crewe-based company, which expanded across Europe and into Asia last year, has seen global sales leap 60% in comparison to two years ago.

Radius said the increase was driven by its growing success in the North West, where it is investing £12m in a new HQ at Crewe Business Park.

Last year, Radius launched two offices in Singapore and Malaysia.

Bill Holmes, the company’s founder and CEO, said: “Our expansion across Europe and last year breaking into Asia has come with its challenges but we have a proven track record of providing tailored fleet solutions to smaller, underrepresented businesses across the UK and we have put this model into practice overseas.

“It’s a major achievement to be included in The Sunday Times International Track for the first time and justifies the hard work everyone has put in to grow our presence on a global scale.”

He continued: “We are confident we can sustain this ambitious but realistic level of growth which is why we’re in the process of constructing a new head office in Crewe. We’ve grown our staff numbers by a quarter in the past year alone, and while we’re focused on plans for further international expansion, we’re firmly committed to keeping our base in the North West.”

Founded in 1990, Radius now operates from 20 offices across 13 countries.

The firm is preparing to expand into new overseas territories in the coming months and grow staff numbers 11% by the end of 2018.
