Getronics buying spree continues

Days after acquiring Pomeroy in the US, Getronics has written a cheque for the French ITS Overlap.

It is all part of a cunning plan to broaden its services offering globally.

ITS Overlap has locations across France and has a turnover of €50 million per year, serving 400 customers. As one of the historic players in the French ICT market, the digital services provider focuses primarily on delivering and optimising customer IT infrastructures for medium-sized companies, specialising in digital integration and transformation.

With the acquisition, Getronics wants to become an even stronger force in the European data centre market.

Francis Weill, Managing Director France and Western & Central Europe for Getronics said: “With 3 of its 20 European Data Centres based in France, Getronics was already a well-established entity. Now, thanks to the acquisition, we will be able to serve our customers even better with a broader offer of end-to-end solutions in terms of integration, business software tools (for airports and health systems, for example), multi-cloud management and unified communication.”
