Ben Crawford, CEO of CentralNic, said: “We are delighted to report that CentralNic demonstrated a very strong performance in 2021, achieving record organic growth of 39%. Our significant and consistent investment in world-class talent and industry-leading products has greatly contributed to the Group’s continued success.

CentralNic’s results for 2021 demonstrate the potential of its strong marketplace model for Online Presence and Online Marketing services. With the completion of the acquisition of VGL in March 2022, we have recently enriched our Online Marketing marketplace with a perfectly complementary asset. Strong earnings, excellent cash conversion and a sound balance sheet will allow us to add more curated acquisitions to our two marketplaces, further supplementing our strong organic growth. Whilst it remains early into the new financial year, we remain confident in our outlook for this year and beyond.”
