Arrow has acquired Godalming-based collaboration specialist Pescado for an undisclosed sum.
The acquisition marks the fourth this year for the comms provider, following on the heels of Complete Networks in March, UK-tec in May, and cloud and datacentre provider AIMES Management Services last month.
Founded in 2006, Pescado specialises in services such as cloud telephony and mobility, as well as a range of cloud and infrastructure solutions. It has a customer base of 2,500 and offices in Ewloe and Belfast.
Pescado’s directors and employees will be retained and work in the Arrow group.
“I’m really looking forward to welcoming the vastly experienced Pescado team to Arrow and working alongside them to drive the organic growth of some key solution areas across the Group,” stated Richard Burke, CEO Arrow Business Communications.
“Their sales focused mentality combined with Arrow’s broad product offering and expertise will significantly enhance our ability to win in the marketplace”
Fraser Watson, Group Managing Director at Pescado, added: “From our initial meeting with the Arrow team I felt our views on the industry appeared perfectly aligned.
“I really believe, by working with Arrow, we can continue to take our customers on an exciting technology driven journey, whilst also offering our people even greater opportunities as part of a bigger group.
“I am very much looking forward to driving the business forward with Arrow’s support. Working together to complete the transaction was challenging thanks to the pandemic but I am delighted with the successful completion which ensures a bright future for all involved.”
