Buckinghamshire-based venue, Lane End Conference Centre, is celebrating the best financial results in its 47-year history on the back of its holding company, HTS Management Holdings Ltd, reporting a revenue increase of 3.5%.
The venue’s financial forecast for the 12 months head estimates a 5% increase in business on the books compared to the same period last year.
September was a particularly good month, the venue reports, with a 10% jump in enquiries.
The news follows a year of investment and refurbishment.
“The results are obviously great news for the venue following a period of time where we have actively looked to invest in its future,” said Heni Fourie (pictured), director of sales and marketing at Lane End.
“Refurbishment and investment across the site as well as the launch of a new-look website has played a part in achieving such a milestone but it is important that we continue to evolve as a multi-purpose venue. We want to keep improving our facilities and services and these end of year results certainly give us the foundation to work from.”
Lane End also recently added an indoor table tennis court in an annexe adjacent to The Cedar Club, which was opened in 2015.
The venue’s new look website was also launched last month: www.lane-end-conferences.co.uk.
Fourie says the current refurbishment programme is set to run through to 2017.
