Westcoast, the UK’s largest IT distributor, has got even bigger after Westcoast (Holdings) Ltd acquired 100% of the share capital of IT components distributor Spire Technology Ltd.
Based in Verwood, Dorset, Spire will become Westcoast Group’s main components pillar and gain full access to all Westcoast customers, finance and tools.
Alex Tatham, Executive Director at Westcoast, said: “There are so many benefits to the combination of Spire and Westcoast for both companies, vendors, UK resellers and employees. It will add significantly to Westcoast’s components portfolio, and both businesses emphasise their agility and flexibility when it comes to speed of decision-making and performance as well as a strong customer intimacy. This cultural fit will help realise immediate mutual opportunities.”
Spire CEO John Appleton added: “Westcoast can only help grow our business and in return we can bring a range of accretive components vendors to Westcoast’s significant and diverse customer base. We are delighted that we can form part of Britain’s largest privately owned technology group and can use its considerable resources to accelerate our growth.”
