Abstract
Irish contract caterer Mount Charles has secured £7.3m in new contracts in the last year, boosting its employee numbers by 130 to a total of 1,850.

The firm achieved a turnover of £28.1m in 2015, increasing its revenue by £2.6m from 2014 and £6.2m from 2013.

Cathal Geoghegan, managing director of the Mount Charles Group, said: “Our growth trajectory in the past few years has been significant, both in terms of revenue and employees. Indeed in 2015, we were named the fastest growing independent foodservice company in the UK by AlixPartners and EP Business in Hospitality.

“We now work with over 150 companies across Ireland. Good news travels fast and our reputation for excellence along with our ability to be competitive has allowed us to win a substantial number of lucrative new contracts. This growth is not only positive for us, it has also provided a boost to the economy and the jobs market in the north and south of Ireland.

“The strategy now is to really push for growth in the Republic of Ireland, and to keep building our business by adding to our services with dynamic and cost effective solutions.

The biggest win was a three year deal worth £3.5m to supply professional contract cleaning to a government body, employing 212 employees across Northern Ireland.

In the past 12 months Mount Charles has also secured contracts with a range of blue chip organisations across Ireland including Ladbrokes, Translink, South Eastern Regional College, the Western Health and Social Care Trust, Glanbia and Pramerica, as well as retaining its beverage contract with Ulster Rugby.
