Ahlsell acquires NEA Elmateriel
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Ahlsell and Närkes Elektriska AB (NEA) have signed an agreement meaning that
Ahlsell is acquiring the shares in NEA Elmateriel AB, one of NEA's fully owned
subsidiaries.
NEA Elmateriel AB is an electrical wholesaler with a turnover of SEK 850 m and
is established in approximately 40 locations throughout Sweden. The customers
are primarily industrial companies.
"Through this acquisition, we are significantly reinforcing Ahlsell's presence
and position within the electrical equipment range in Sweden. Our operations
complement one another well and we view the combined unit as a strong platform
for continued expansion," says Göran Näsholm, CEO of Ahlsell AB.
Per Sjöstrand, CEO of the NEA Group, remarked that the decision to sell the
operations to Ahlsell was taken following a competitive process with a number of
interested parties, in which Ahlsell presented the best offer overall. The price
has certainly been important, but another decisive factor was Ahlsell's desire
and ability to be a proactive future partner for the owners of the NEA Group
(the Dutch company Imtech N.V.) regarding their Nordic operations within the
Electrical and HVAC field.
A final agreement is subject to approval by the Swedish Competition Authority.
