One of the UK’s biggest providers of hospitality software solutions, Verteda, has been acquired by Brisbane-based technology firm MSL Solutions (MSL).

Verteda said the deal creates a wider portfolio of complementary products and services benefitting both business in the UK and international markets.

Verteda Managing Director Adrian Burns said the new venture accelerates the strategic direction of the business, stating “the new partnership with MSL is very exciting, extremely complementary and will optimise Verteda’s sales and support of hospitality solutions internationally.

“Crucially the service and support we extend to our valued UK and international clients and speed in which we can adapt to geographic needs remains at the heart of our decisions.

“In this fast-paced industry in which technology trends and consumer behaviours change rapidly, our solutions and those of MSL are perfectly aligned.”

Burns said customers can expect no change in their interactions with the business with the Verteda staff, operations and brand name remaining.

The acquisition means Brisbane-based MSL now owns a foothold in the UK market as it continues to grow market share internationally in addition to its blue-chip Australian clients the MCG and Sydney’s ANZ Stadium.

MSL Managing Director and Chief Executive Craig Kinross said adding Verteda to its growing stable of software solution brands was a natural fit.

Kinross advised “we are very excited to begin this new partnership and look forward to providing the UK hospitality industry with our innovative MPower platform which helps food and beverage clients build lasting customer connections.

“The Verteda brand and business is strong and its executive team has the experience and commitment to drive growth in the UK and select global markets.”

Kinross said Verteda’s current customer list reads like a who’s who of market leaders across hotels, resorts, sports and entertainment venues and restaurant chains, adding “the UK hospitality market is expansive especially in our key targets of stadium, golf and venue management which opens up a host of new revenue streams.”

A UK-based leading provider of IT solutions specialising in the hospitality sector, Verteda enables hotels and resorts, sports and entertainment venues, restaurant chains and foodservice partners to streamline operations to enhance customer satisfaction and maximise revenue, workforce productivity and profitability.
