“Focus Group is already a strong partner across the major UK networks, and this acquisition makes us an even more powerful force in the O2 market in particular. Communications Plus is a genuinely outstanding business… What really stood out to us, though, was the culture - the values and the way they look after their customers mirror exactly what Focus Group stands for.”
