Archant chief executive, Adrian Jeakings, said the progress the company has made over the tough last 12 months is due in large part to its staff.†
“While the impact of the recession is far from over, it is already clear Archant has made great progress during 2009. We have launched new products and services, including new newspapers, websites and ground-breaking mobile sites.
“This year we will build on the foundations laid in 2009. We will ramp up our investment in business development and will be launching more new products and services.
“But none of this is possible without the people of Archant who, day in day out, work across the country to make us the company we are today.To my mind, they are the best people in the industry.”
