Bechtle acquires IT system house in Spain

 

  • IT service provider in Barcelona and Madrid added to fold
  • Bolstered portfolio and market position in Spain

 

Neckarsulm, 04 August 2023 – Bechtle has acquired Prosol Ingeniería S.L. and Prosol Iscat S.L. to broaden its Spanish portfolio and include IT services for the first time. Together, the two companies employ 50 staff and achieved revenues of some 15 million euros in 2022 at their sites in Las Rozas, near Madrid, and Terrassa, close to Barcelona. Prosol has been active on the Spanish market as a systems integrator for the industrial sector since 1996, offering services that now complement Bechtle’s e-commerce business in the country. For Prosol’s founder, managing director and primary shareholder, Manuel Climent, the sale to Bechtle is also a way to secure his succession, although he will stay on board in an advisory capacity during the period of integration. The three remaining members of the board overseeing sales, technology and finance will remain in their positions. Juan-José Moneo will take over the reins of the company alongside his role of Managing Director of Bechtle direct Spain. 

With Prosol, Bechtle is continuing to pursue its European expansion strategy, bolstering its portfolio in those countries where it already has an active e-commerce presence. Following acquisitions in the DACH region, the IT service provider has most recently purchased companies in the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and France (subject to regulatory approval). Bechtle direct opened its doors in Spain in 2001 and also has sites in Madrid and Barcelona. Besides its portfolio, Prosol also brings an expanded customer base and will strengthen the IT provider’s partnerships with important manufacturers.
