UK IT solutions and services provider Kelway, has acquired Business & Scientific Services Ltd (BSS), the Irish Microsoft Large Account Reseller (LAR) which has operations in Belfast and Dublin.
Kelway said that the acquisition would allow it to draw on BSS’s more than 25 years of experience in "providing best-of-breed solutions to government and enterprise organisations in Ireland".
The company said that it would continue the Microsoft LAR relationship held by BSS, which will enable it to license Microsoft products for midsize and enterprise-level organisations across all of its EU Operations.
"The deal represents a significant step forward for Kelway’s operations in Ireland," said Phil Doye, chief executive officer, Kelway. "BSS has well-established bases in both Dublin and Belfast and coverage of all 32 Irish counties. By combining the two companies’ strengths we will look to maximise the value Kelway can bring to customers across the UK and Ireland"
"We are delighted to become part of the Kelway Group. Kelway’s status as a leading provider of IT services and solutions is extremely positive for both our staff and clients," said Willie McKee, managing director, BSS.
"I’m excited by the opportunity that this acquisition brings to Kelway and our clients," said Dan Laws, managing director, Kelway. "We anticipate significant growth opportunities within our software licensing business as we look to integrate BSS into the broader Kelway group"
Kelway was founded in the UK in 1990 and has a current turnover of around €364 million, employing 800 staff across the UK.
