ROKiT

ROKiT Ltd, is a multifaceted global conglomerate with a diverse portfolio that spans across various industries. The company prides itself on its commitment to responsible business practices, which includes efforts to minimize environmental impact, invest in employee welfare, and produce high-quality content that informs, entertains, and inspires a wide audience. Founded by serial entrepreneur Jonathan Kendrick, ROKiT Ltd has its roots in the tire industry, with Kendrick initially securing the European rights to the then-unknown Yokohama tires brand. His business acumen led him to bring another tire brand, Gajah Tunggal, to the UK market, which quickly became one of the leading retailers. Kendrick's ventures took a significant turn when he entered the telecommunications business, developing an innovative system for British Telecom to sell pre-paid vouchers electronically. This venture was sold in 1998, but it marked the beginning of ROKiT's journey in the telecoms industry. Alongside co-founder John Paul DeJoria, known for the Paul Mitchell line of hair products and Patron Tequila, Kendrick re-launched the ROK brand to simplify the process of pre-paid vouchers for mobile phones. ROKiT Ltd has since expanded into mobile television, providing services to network providers worldwide. In 2007, the company achieved a milestone by streaming the world's first live music concert over mass-market 2.5G via GPRS to mobile phones. This success led to the establishment of ROK TV, which was deployed in over 50 countries by 2013. In 2018, the founders created ROKiT, a people-first telecoms company offering value-driven mobile handsets paired with vital life services such as telemedicine and roadside assistance. The company also ventured into smart phones featuring glasses-free 3D screens. ROKiT Ltd is also recognized as a start-up incubator, fostering innovation and supporting the development of new technologies. Its product range includes mobile phones, WiFi services, beverages, and it has made significant contributions to 3D content production, product development, and distribution in movies and music. The company operates with a strong ethical framework, ensuring that its business practices align with its core values. ROKiT Ltd is dedicated to creating an inclusive workplace where employees feel valued and inspired, recognizing the talents of its diverse workforce and cultivating new leaders to drive the company forward. With a registered office located in Edgware, Greater London, ROKiT Ltd has been active since its incorporation on July 30, 1986. The company is classified under the retail sale of clothing in specialized stores and has been operating for over 37 years. It is a medium-sized enterprise with between 50 to 250 employees and a turnover ranging between £10 to £50 million.
