RBR Group (RBR) has secured $320,000 in new funding from South African based private entity, Tennant Group.

The board of RBR Group entered a convertible loan deed with Tennant Group, which secured funding directly to RBR to grow existing service offerings in skills training and labour hire, payroll and financial services.

Under the terms of the deed, Tennant will pay $300,000, which will convert to approximately 86 million shares in RBR.
