Jigsaw buys some more corner pieces in Apple market

Jigsaw24 has picked up service and repair specialist Amsys to bolster its position in the Apple market for media and entertainment customers.

For those who came in late, Amsys is one of the largest Apple repair and servicing specialists in the UK, with a history that spans three decades.

Jigsaw24’s chief operating officer David Dudman said: “This acquisition and the addition of the Amsys team will significantly increase Jigsaw24’s repair capabilities and bolster our technical expertise while providing Amsys with the financial security of a company with a turnover of £169 million.”

Amsys provides break-fix and warranty support to customers, and hosts the Mac System Administrator and Developer Conference (MacAD.UK) annual event, which attracts speakers and attendees from across the globe.

Under the purchase agreement, the terms of which were not disclosed, Amsys’ 40 staff members will continue working at the firm’s workshop facilities in Kenley, Surrey under the Amsys brand.

Amsys CEO Alex Hawes will be staying at the company as a strategy consultant.

“I’ve known Jigsaw24 for as long as I have been building Amsys, and I can’t think of a better home for our people and customers,” he said. “Jigsaw24 is a fabulous company, and I’m confident that together the companies will build high-quality services at scale for all of our customers.”
