"I am pleased with the progress we have made with our technological developments, and I am excited about the opportunities presented by our new website.
"This new platform will enable us to further penetrate our core market and provide the best possible base for us to further expand our trade and adjacent product areas.
"We continue to be focused on our long-term goals. We are making good progress on all of our strategic initiatives and are confident in the future growth prospects of the group."
