Vespertec, a Stockport-based technology company specialising in data centre and AI infrastructure, has secured a £1.8m export contract to Kenya.
The contract was supported by UK Export Finance (UKEF), the government’s export credit agency.
Vespertec more than doubled its turnover in 2025 and is seeing rising international demand for its data centre and AI infrastructure expertise.
Steve Evans, director of finance at Vespertec, said: “Demand for data centre and cloud infrastructure is growing rapidly across Africa, and this project reflects the trust international partners place in UK engineering and delivery capability.
“Support from UK Export Finance has helped us pursue opportunities of this scale and complexity, and to build on relationships that have developed over time.”
