(Sharecast News) - Support services firm Restore said on Monday that it had acquired the Bookyard, a leading Apple recycling and spare parts business based in Liverpool, for an undisclosed sum.

"We have achieved considerable growth in our Apple products line over the last few years but the significant brand awareness and expertise that The Bookyard will bring will deliver increasing momentum to Restore Technology in the all-important Apple recycling market."
