Sleep technology business announces multiple new partners as growth continues

Barkby Group PLC (AIM:BARK) is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, Cambridge Sleep Sciences ("CSS"), the science-based sleep technology business behind SleepHub®, has developed more than 10 new sales partnerships as part of its continued growth strategy. 

The partnerships, all with leading international businesses, includes retailers Harrods, Smartech (in Selfridges), Currys and Very; sales agents and distributors TKG, Go10, NewGen and Sleep Analysis Australia; and health, wellbeing and fitness brands Lifeworks, Whitecalm and PureGym. CSS's new partnerships will enable them to capitalise on the growing global sleep tech devices market which is forecast to grow at a CAGR of nearly 11% and exceed $30bn by 2028.*

These partnerships follow the recent shortlisting of CSS as a finalist in the innovation category of the Medilink Midlands Business Awards for their SleepHub® Home product. CSS also recently announced the development of a portable product - SleepHub® Anywhere, due to be launched this year in Spring.

CSS is progressing a number of further major partnerships and looks forward to announcing these shortly.

Dr Julian Stone, CEO of CSS , said:  "I'm delighted to be partnering with these leading household names as we continue to extend the reach of SleepHub® in our key markets. Collaboration has always been at the heart of our business and we are looking forward to a successful year working with all of our partners to play a role in addressing the global sleep challenge."
