Nov 21, 2003 : Business Serve Acquires Legend Internet
📅 - UK Internet service and Web hosting provider Business Serve plc (http://www.businessserve.co.uk) said yesterday that it has acquired Legend Internet Ltd. (legend.co.uk), a Bradford, UK-based provider of Internet and Web hosting services.
Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Simon Cleaver, managing director of Business Serve, said the newly acquired company would continue to operate under its own identity as part of the Business Serve Group.
He added that both companies would benefit from the consolidation. "As we continue to grow and develop so does the offering we give to our customers.

"This will enable us to further exploit cross selling opportunities and increase our revenues accordingly. We're delighted to have them on board."
Business Serve said it amassed revenues of £8.1 million in 2002.03, up 46 percent over the previous year.
Legend Internet revenues for 2002/03 totaled £2.8 million.
"When we were first approached by Business Serve it quickly became clear there was an obvious fit," said Nigel Wadsworth, director of Legend Internet. "The Business Serve group is fast becoming a major force in the ISP sector and we are proud to be a part of the picture."
