Why has Claimar chosen to make so many acquisitions?
The domiciliary care market is very fragmented. There are currently around 3500 registered providers of domiciliary care in the United Kingdom, the majority of which are small independent operators. According to Laing & Buisson a sector analyst the average provider delivers around 1000 hrs per week, and employs about 40 people. Claimar currently delivers around 25,000 hours per week with a workforce of around a 1000.
