Sales were up 24% to £8.3m and are expected to grow by at least 50% in 2013, following a number of significant contract wins. New unit installations are forecasted to reach 5,000 per month by mid-year. Quartix added 1,400 new fleet customers during the year from a broad range of industry sectors. Organisations from both the private and public sectors chose the Quartix system, including Volvo Construction Equipment, Worcester City Council, Alton Towers, Days Contract Hire, Amaryllis Group, and Greater Manchester Police. A significant highlight of the year was the winning of a contract from LOCOG for the provision of 650 vehicle tracking systems http://www.quartix.co.uk/ “Operating profit increased by 60% to £2.9m in 2012, making us one of the most financially stable companies in the tracking sector.
