German cloud telephony provider NFON is fast expanding across Europe with footholds established in Portugal this summer, a new office in Berlin just opened and plans for another in Italy later this year.
Undaunted by Brexit, NFON has also ratcheted up its UK growth ambitions with a relocation to larger offices in Uxbridge to accommodate additional staff and provide a springboard to gain greater market share.
NFON opened its UK subsidiary in April 2013 and in its third year generated growth of over 300% while channel partnerships number 100-plus including Chess, Westcoast and ScanSource.
"The relocation signals the company's confidence in the UK and supports our long-term growth plan," said NFON UK MD Myles Leach.
"As part of this expansion we will add five new sales and support staff to our team of 30 employees by the end of 2017."
Hans Szymanski, CEO, NFON AG, stated: "The UK market has gone from strength to strength, and our support hasn't wavered in light of the result of the Brexit referendum.
"This is a big investment in our UK division, and forms part of our long-term plan for the UK to maintain a key role in the overall company growth. It's poignant that as we pass our tenth year milestone we enter a new phase of internationalisation.
"By 2018 we will have increased the number of employees across the NFON group by 34%."
