96: Covion

Covion is a facilities management supplier, which means it takes care of a range of headaches for its clients. It’s the ultimate outsourcing business, with services covering logistics, communications, personnel and property. It saves clients money by bundling up its services and delivering them through an on-site team.

This also makes Covion services more accountable to customers and easier to communicate with, it says. Founded in 2000, the business made sales of just under £25m last year.
