Symmetry Advises on the sale of Four Digital Solutions to Anglotech

Symmetry Corporate Finance have advised the shareholders of Four Digital Solutions on their sale to Anglotech.

Anglotech is a UK office equipment and solutions provider. The company is focused on delivering tailored office technology solutions across the UK.  Anglotech is looking to grow through a buy-and-build strategy, and as such has acquired Four Digital Solutions, alongside the financing of the acquisition which was provided by Thincats.

Four Digital Solutions (4DS), based in Hertfordshire, is a dynamic wholesaler of printers, photocopiers and other supporting office equipment. Four Digital Solutions’ point of difference is providing office solutions which are carefully thought out to meet the needs of a particular business, as opposed to a one-size-fits-all approach. This is epitomised in their “Be Unique” branded photocopiers, which allow customers to transform a standard copier into a branded photocopier for their workspace. They have also expanded their offering to incorporate other support functions such as rapid-response maintenance for machines, installation of smart software tools, and wider IT training and support.

Vince Tickel, CEO of Four Digital Solutions commented “we are delighted to have found the right home for the business. There were a number of interested acquirers for 4DS but it quickly became clear that Anglotech were the best cultural and commercial fit.  Charlie Rickett continues in a senior position and we know that staff & clients will only see their outcomes enhanced now that 4DS is part of the Anglotech group. Symmetry drove the process on our behalf, from pre-market production & preparation, through to bringing interested parties to the table, leading negotiations and managing the transaction through to a successful completion and we are grateful for their advice and support.” 

Brad Piercewright, CEO of Anglotech said “I am excited to see the 4DS team join us at a time of significant growth for our organisation. The future for Anglotech is very bright indeed and this acquisition will accelerate our shared success.”
