Blueberry was founded by entrepreneur Faresh Maisuria in 2005. He said: “Our profit has almost quadrupled since last year, which can be attributed to the expansion of our work force due to a growing client base.
“We have also invested heavily in training our staff, to ensure that they have the knowledge to provide our clients with the best possible service, which has resulted in new business and existing contract renewals.
“I’m extremely proud of Blueberry’s business success and fully expect us to reach our target of another 12 per cent revenue increase by January 2015.

No client accounts for more than 12 per cent of our revenue, and our top 10 customers account for less than 50 per cent of total income.
