Managed print service outfit Automated Systems (ASL) has written a cheque for Geerings Digital – its second acquisition of 2018.
Geerings was founded in Ashford in 1903 to focus on print, but over the past 115 years it has diversified into supplying office equipment and supplies to the commercial and education sectors across Kent, Essex, London, Sussex and Surrey.
It is jointly managed by Will and Adam Geering, the great-grandsons of its founder.
An ASL spokesman said that Geerings’ had a loyal customer base and reputation which will strengthen ASL’s coverage in the South East.
” Geerings Digital is a good fit with ASL – particularly their high standards and commitment to customer service”, he stated.
Earlier this year ASL bought ICA Digital and the company said that it is looking at further acquisition opportunities as part of our plan to grow significantly over the coming years.
The latest addition to the group will boost the company’s overall turnover past £27 million, along with increasing headcount to 140.
