Earlier this year, United Purpose merged into Gorta Group, a collection of British and Irish organizations with a focus on nutrition, agriculture, and enterprise development. But it was far from the first time this group — which now employs more than 700 people and has a turnover above $40 million — had joined with another.
Gorta’s structure involves several organizations operating semi-independently under a single banner. And Ray Jordan, chief executive of the Gorta Group, said his plan is to grow further.
“Our ambition is to actively keep growing and adding more partners,” he said. “We’re looking for like-minded organizations that we respect and get on with.”
