Romesh Perera - Managing Director

Romesh has been in Retail for over twenty years, working through the ranks and learning the trade from the basics. He soon proved that he was an entrepreneur as he enjoyed various retail successes. He started off in Petrol Retail and simultaneously acquired his own store that was operated under the “Costcutter” branding. A second store soon followed that became the first “Budgens” independent and soon after he acquired the first independent store for “Somerfield”.

His hard work, enthusiastic flair and determination soon earned him a reputation in the Convenience Retail arena.

Regularly recognised within the industry, Romesh can list several awards in his portfolio including :
-	Asian Trader of the Year 2004
-	Appointed as a member of judging panel for Retail Industry Awards, 2003
-	Asian Trader of the Year 2002
-	Young Entrepreneur of the Year 2002, Retail Industry Awards
-	Asian Trader Award for the Best Impulse Trader of the Year 2001
-	Best Shop of the Year 2001, awarded by Costcutter

Romesh has also achieved a Masters degree in IT which has given him the background to develop MSP Systems Ltd.

“I had been in the UK convenience sector for over eighteen years using various EPOS systems. I was unable to find one system to satisfy all of my requirements to operate my stores efficiently and effectively. I am from a computer background so could recognise and evaluate the good and the bad of each system. I was in an ideal position to be able to develop a system that worked for the Retailer, rather than the Retailer work for it. My dream has been realised and is MSP Systems.”

Romesh is the original designer and instigator of MSP Systems. With the experience outlined above, coupled with his entrepreneurial talents, he is the ideal person to recognise the challenges faced by retailers every day, and is also able to provide the resolutions. Romesh is constantly searching for innovative ideas and is always striving towards new technology and further developments in the system.

Carol Kelly - Finance Director

Carol has worked in the financial world since leaving college, starting off in auditing and learning the business from the basics. Her CV includes setting up accounting systems for small to medium companies.

She was introduced to the Retail world over twenty years ago where by at first she specialised in the Petrol Retail sector. Her responsibilities were mainly to advise retailers on the financial growth of their business. She was also involved with the training of clients, running corporate training courses in financial management.

After having her children, for flexibility, she started her own business providing Financial Management Consultancy for

the Retail Industry, quickly building up her own portfolio of clients in various fields. This experience has given MSP Systems Ltd an excellent foundation.

She shared the same frustrations with Romesh; from the various systems that she used not one seemed to provide the complete solution. So being involved from the beginning, Carol has been able to provide the accounting requirements of the system.

Carol is responsible for all the administration of the Company, including all finance issues, training and client liaison. Her management skills have proved invaluable to the success and growth of the Company.
