Reader Offers Ltd punches through crunch

Wednesday, 16 July 20083 min read

Crunch or no crunch, the popularity of the cruise continues unabated if specialist agency Reader Offers Ltd’s latest figures are any sort of guage.

The agency says it has seen “exceptional growth” in its annual accounts to April 30 this year, with sales turnover more than £75m, in line with forecast, and profits net of tax at £3m, ahead of forecast.

Reader Offers, the global top seller for Cunard Line and Fred.Olsen, aims to increase turnover for 2008 to £110m and says it is currently on target. It also plans to move to larger offices in Colchester later in the year.
