Midwich’s Nimans and DVS buy caused huge revenue growth

After its acquisition of Nimans and DVS this year, distie Midwich saw its revenues in the UK and Ireland grew by 85 percent year on year during the six months until 30 June.

Midwich snapped up Nimans for £27.5 million in February this year. The distributor turned over £114.3 million in revenues and pre-tax profits of £5.8 million for calendar 2020.

The group’s organic revenue grew 27 percent year on year, which the company attributes to acquiring Nimans and DVS.

The overall gross margin was stated to be approximately 15 percent, which Midwich says is largely equivalent to H1 2021. The group’s board expects stronger gross margins to be in sight for H2 as more live and face-to-face events return in a number of the markets Midwich services.  

Midwich snaps up DVS

Midwich has acquired a majority stake in Cardiff-based distributor DVS due to its cunning plan to get into the CCTV and security market.

The HikVision and Toshiba distributor was founded in 2003 and is based in Cardiff. Operating through parent company Cooper Projects Limited, the firm offers CCTV and security solutions for trade customers in verticals including corporate, retail, and residential.
