Accrol hits £70m sales

Blackburn-based Accrol Papers has registered £70m in sales, an 8 per cent increase on last year's figures.

Turnover at Accrol Holdings improved by 18 per cent to £74.8m in the year to the end of April. Pre-tax profits were up by 8.3% to £7.8m. The company was also listed in April's Sunday Times Profit Track 100 for its rapid growth, a position it's sure to keep if it hits the predicted £90m turnover in 2014.
