30% growth in Irish market for Mount Charles cleaning

Independent foodservice, cleaning and business support company Mount Charles grew turnover last year by just over 30%, with almost €2.5 million-worth of new cleaning and catering contracts won from its Dublin base.

Overall turnover for the Belfast-headquartered all-Ireland Cleaning Provider of the Year has risen by 20% to £40 million and with employee figures growing to 2,500 in the same period, the company says it’s firmly on course to achieve its target of £100 million turnover target by 2025.

Since establishing a base in Dublin just one year ago the company has secured over €10 million-worth of new contracts, “We announced our intention to achieve a turnover of £100 million by 2025 to mark our 30^th anniversary at the end of 2018” said Trevor Annon, Chairman and Founder of Mount Charles, “and this latest year-on-year growth is in line with our forecast and prediction that we will achieve this target.

“The Republic of Ireland marketplace is now a key target for us as we continue to develop our Dublin-based service delivery and management team. Growing our market share from our Dublin base remains a key priority and will be a major driver of overall company growth over the next five years, with cleaning and catering services in particular playing a significant role.

The company has again been shortlisted for the 2019 Cleaning Provider of the Year award as well as Client & Service Provider Partnership of the Year for its long-standing contract with Titanic Belfast, the world’s number one tourist attraction as named by the World Travel Awards.
