Swift Networks Group Ltd (ASX:SW1) has signed a contract with leading aged care provider, Infinite Care, to provide its services to the group’s newest facilities in Queensland.
The company provides fully integrated digital entertainment solutions to sectors including resources, hotel, lifestyle village and aged care.
The initial three-year contract will see Swift provide its aged care-specific package to 350 rooms in early 2019 across multiple sites.
Sites include Infinite Care’s state of the art facility in Mt Lofty, Toowoomba, which opens to residents next month, and its facility at Cornubia, south-east of Brisbane, which is due to open in early 2019.
Swift aims to grow alongside Infinite Care as a preferred partner
In addition to these Queensland sites, Infinite Care operates five existing facilities in South Australia, totalling 400 rooms.
The group aims to grow to 2,500 rooms by 2021 through greenfield development, expansion of existing facilities and targeted acquisitions in South Australia, New South Wales, Victoria and Western Australia.
As its preferred partner, Swift is currently working alongside Infinite Care to assess the feasibility of providing its services across these venues.
