Following an extensive review of its mobile services and requirements, Rydal Group has selected Giacom as its wholesale supplier for mobile solutions. Rydal chose Giacom based on the company’s versatile mobile offerings, expertise, and range of self-service options available from its recently launched ‘Cloud Market’ portal.
Established in 2008 by Managing Director, Steffan Dancy, Rydal is an award-winning communications and managed IT, security and energy provider. The company recently embarked on an ambitious strategy to rapidly develop its customer base through acquisition. Execution of this strategy over the past twelve months has resulted in the acquisition of Black Bear IT Solutions as well as the business communications client bases of NDG Technology, BrokenStones and Krypton IT, with further acquisition activity in the pipeline.
Sales of mobile services into its customer base will play a key role in fulfilling Rydal’s business development plans. Partnership with Giacom will, therefore, support and enable Rydal’s acquisition activity by offering commercial flexibility, collaboration, and expertise in various aspects of the supply chain. Giacom also brings its own extensive acquisition experience to the table, meaning it can act in an advisory role to help Rydal successfully integrate acquisitions into the wider business.
Commenting on Rydal’s choice of Giacom, Steffan Dancy, Managing Director said, “We’ve been really impressed with the strong relationship built with Giacom. The growth and the development of its mobile products, in addition to other services in its portfolio, aligns perfectly with our own plans for growth. The proposition offered by Giacom enhances the commercial viability of our buy and build strategy, enabling us to effectively scale up mobile operations as we continue to grow. The quoting and provisioning tools available in Giacom’s platform will also provide unparalleled control over our services.”
Andrew Wilford Giacom’s Manging Director – Mobile said, “Rydal Group is a valued partner of Giacom’s, so we’re very pleased to have forged this long-term, strategic partnership with them. Rydal is one of Giacom’s fastest growing and most successful Managed Services partners because it has a clear, differentiated value proposition. It helps its customers to get real advantage from technology investment by providing simple, reliable technology solutions from one place, reducing stress and saving money. A high-quality mobile provision is a core part of this value, and we are delighted to be able to support them on this journey. We’ve put a framework in place that will enable Steffan and his team to grow the business quickly and without restraint, making it easy for Rydal to consolidate with us.”
