Internet shopping pioneer MX2 goes out of business
Thursday 20th May 2010, 2:30PM BST.
A local computer company that was among the pioneers of internet shopping has gone bust.
MX2 Computers Ltd, which is said to have employed between 20 and 40 people at its peak, has been placed into liquidation.
The fulfilment business was marketed as ‘food for enthusiasts’ and sold digital cameras, batteries, memory sticks and blank CDs, among other items.

Former managing director John Houslip said yesterday that the company had worked with the remaining five staff to secure them positions elsewhere.
