One of Kent’s leading IT solutions and communications services providers, Astro, is delighted to have been named as one of the fastest-growing, private companies in Kent on the prestigious annual MegaGrowth 50 list for the second year running.

Steve Hodges, Managing Director of Astro said; “Thanks to the amazing team at Astro, we really are on an award winning roll! To appear on the Megagrowth list for the second year running is a fantastic achievement. It is great to see our hard work paying off; Astro has continued to broaden our client base with prestigious new business wins, but equally importantly, has forged strong business relationships and not only retained existing long-term clients, but increased the range of services we offer them. Congratulations should go to all the business in Kent who have made the Megagrowth list in 2018.”
