Flexible to strengthen position with deal

Flexible Multimedia has acquired the training products division of Creative Management

Flexible Multimedia has acquired the training products division of Creative Management. The deal is expected to greatly strengthen Flexible's position as a dominant player in the multimedia training market in Ireland. Flexible now has more than 1,000 multimedia courses on CD-Rom and in excess of 2,000 training videos. Following the acquisition the company says its turnover will exceed £1.2 million this year, and it expects to increase its workforce by six. Both companies are wholly Irish-owned and managed. Creative Management has played an active role for more than 30 years in the area of tutor-led training and video training products.

Flexible Multimedia is located in Cork and Dublin and it established a purpose-built centre in Wicklow town to deal with the new expansion of business.
