The new partnership aims to build on the strength of both companeis to deliver a comprehensive point of sale (PoS) platform. As part of the agreement, Focus will become Redland’s preferred provider in the UK Pos and extranet market, and Redland will be Focus’ partner for business intelligence and end to end process support tools.

Joel Turland, managing director at Redland Business Solutions, commented: “We recognise the excellent work that Focus has been doing in the PoS space for a number of years and clearly, the opportunity to work with the market leader was very appealing to us.”

David Brooks, business development director at Focus Solutions Group plc, added: “We have identified the need to strengthen the compliance related tools surrounding our solutions under an increasingly vigilant regulatory environment and we are very pleased to be partnering with Redland, an expert in this space.”
