Wii accessory company gets £4 million funding
With the success of the Nintendo Wii and its plethora of games accessories comes equal success for the companies that make and distribute those accessories. If you want Guitar Hero accessories, Simpsons addons or of course the much anticipated Star Wars Wii accessory (you know what we’re talking about) then Bolton based A4T are the guys behind it.
The company has gone from strength to strength since the release of the Nintendo Wii, and has just secured further investment with a £4 million funding boost from RBS.
The company has only been trading for four years, and has already made all manner of games accessories, for all of the major consoles, including the PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii. Anyone who’s played a golf game, fishing game or car game with a custom controller will have most likely used A4T’s products.
Andrew Shephard, the founder of games accessory company A4T, stated:
The business has performed very well and we have made great progress in a short space of time.
We are one of the leading gaming accessory providers in the UK and our goal is to build upon this success and become a major player on the world stage.
As we secure an increasing number of quality licences, it is essential to have the necessary funding structure in place to cover the cost of our operation.
This facility with RBS is a good solution and will support our future growth plans.
