K3 老九品茶 Technology Group is to de-list from the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange.

K3, which has offices around the world, provides 鈥榤ade-to-measure鈥 software solutions for the fashion and retail industry.

The Manchester-headquartered business is set to return 拢29m to shareholders following the divestment of its NexSys Solutions subsidiary to global ERP software provider SYSPRO for 拢36m in cash.

It has now proposed the cancellation of its shares from public trading while it has no plans to replace CEO Eric Dodd when he retires at the end of September.
