A HAMPSHIRE telecommunications specialist has shared its vision for growth in a special seminar for local dealers.

Uniworld's seminar, entitled Creating Your Wealth, was held at its Gosport headquarters and was attended by more than 30 of the firm's local partners.

The successful turnout at the event, which also detailed a series of new reward initiatives for Uniworld's dealers, was on the back of the firm's latest products.

Uniworld managing director Colin Potter, pictured above with some of his staff, who wants to increase turnover to £100m within the next few years, said the sessions were aimed at developing dealers, who sell telecoms packages to consumers, and helping them to win new business.

Colin launched Uniworld from his Hampshire home in 1996 and just five years later turnover had reached £1.42m.

He hit the national headlines by passing on to staff £2m of the £10m he made when he sold the company earlier this year.

Uniworld is celebrating a record year, with turnover in excess of £17m, with pre-tax profits of £840,000.

That is up on last year's figure of £7.88m and continued growth is forecast, with next year's turnover expected to reach £50m.
