Sweett Group regional business updates
Sweett Group, the property and infrastructure consultancy, is pleased to provide the following business update for its three main reporting regions.
Dean Webster, Chief Executive Officer, said:
"The Group recently reached a significant milestone, reporting an order book of over £100m, and I am pleased to report the constituents of this order book include project commissions from across a range of sectors and service areas. Some of these are repeat business from our existing client base, whilst others are new business, indicating an improving market share across the regions and sectors in which we operate. Whilst markets continue to be highly competitive, I am encouraged by our pipeline of projects."
