WARRENPOINT food-to-go producer Deli Lites is investing in new next-generation digital technology to support its accelerated plans for international growth.
It is modernising its digital tech assets with a transformative deal to keep its staff well-connected with new mobiles, landlines and broadband, all of which will be delivered by leading telecoms and IT provider Radius Connect.
The technology will also allow Deli Lites’ transport team to roll out a new app which will remove paper delivery notes, saving more than 1.5 million sheets of paper per year.
The investment coincides with the launch of an additional fleet of 17 vehicles which are rolling out to keep up with growing demand for Deli Lites’ expanding range of products.
Earlier this year, Deli Lites, run by husband-and-wife team Brian and Jackie Reid and which produces more than 20 million products annually, said Ulster Bank would be supporting its business needs and providing additional funding facilities to accelerate its future growth.
Deli Lites’ logistics manager Niall McKenna said: “Mobility, speed, security and the ability to scale-up quickly are key components to ensuring we can always meet our customers’ needs in a highly competitive marketplace.
“That’s why we’re continually and proactively investing in technology that sets us out from the rest and keeps our teams always reliably connected.
“In a challenging business environment, it’s never been so important for our employees to stay connected no matter which jurisdiction they are in, which is why we’re pleased with the results delivered to date by our preferred digital tech partner Radius Connect.”
Stephen McQuoid, Ireland director at Radius said: “We’re proud to be the preferred communications supplier to one of Northern Ireland’s most successful and outwardly ambitious companies, which has a keen eye for growth and expansion, and we wish Brian, Jackie and all the team continued to success.
“Our goal is to increase efficiency and improve the profitability of all our customers and to support every business to compete and succeed with the best products that generate the best return.”
Radius Connect, part of Sunday Times Top Track 100 company Radius Payment Solutions, has operated in Ireland for 25 years, and expanded on its operations in Northern Ireland earlier this year with the acquisition of IT and telecoms specialist Rainbow Communications.
