A new owner for Axiz
2010-08-12 South Africa : broadliner Pinnacle Technology is buying its competitor Axiz Technology, in a deal that will create SA's largest channel-focused company. Pinnacle says it will buy out Axiz's shareholders, which include staff and management, for about €17m. This announcement comes about four months after Axiz scuttled rumours of a possible takeover, when it said in April that there was no formal offer on the table. The deal gives both organisations access to different brands that were not in their portfolios, and would result in cost savings. Pinnacle is focused on the top end of the market, while Axiz has been servicing smaller companies, which enables expanded cross-sell opportunities. Pinnacle subsidiary Workgroup will merge with Axiz once the deal is finalised. Workgroup MD Doug Woolley says, by leveraging a common infrastructure, Workgroup will escalate its product offering into new markets, and Axiz will benefit from the increased solutions expertise (source : IT Web South Africa).
