Capita Group snaps up travel agent for biz types Expotel

"travel solutions"

"both bespoke, niche solutions and a unique end-to-end travel proposition to its current and future clients"

And if it's anything like the "travel solutions" [Agent X] used to force on the employees of the global corporate where I used to work, the company will be paying way above the going open market rate, but Purchasing will insist you use [Agent X] because if you don't use [Agent X] Purchasing don't get their end of year kickbacks of one form or another.

Net benefit overall to the employee and employer: zero or negative.

Net benefit to the "travel solutions" provider, and Purchasing: that'll do nicely, thank you.

operating profit of £32m on turnover of £16.3m

@ Titus - That's what I was thinking.

Standby..

for asset stripping and leaving the business to bleed to death.
