In recent
months Claremorris based Retail Technology Company CBE has created 20 new jobs
to cater for their continued growth both in Ireland and Internationally.

CEO, Sean
Kenna explains “In spite of the Brexit risk, our UK business is our fastest
growing division and next month we will be moving to a much larger UK head
office and operations hub based in Derby, to cater for this growth.

“Our
international business outside of the UK also continues to grow. We now have a
presence in 12 countries including the USA, Canada, Denmark, Spain, Algeria and
Bahrain. All of which we remotely support from our Head Office in Claremorris.

Our new
staff are highly skilled graduates and will be involved in many facets of the
business including Software Development, Project Management, Marketing, Sales
and Administration.

We are
delighted that CBE can offer quality local employment to those highly skilled
people, the majority coming from Third Level Education along the West of
Ireland.

Our
business model has evolved in recent years, enabling us to build partnerships
with leading global companies to provide them with bespoke solutions. In order
for this to happen, our Research & Development division had to grow
considerably and within the last 8 years it has trebled to over 40 employees.

Next year CBE will be celebrating 40 years of business in Claremorris and we are looking forward to many more years of continued growth.”
