Arrow pins down Siebert acquisition in Scotland

Arrow has widened its footprint in Scotland with the acquisition of Siebert Industries which traded as Siebert Telecom Solutions.

Founded in 1990, Siebert is a provider of hosted, fixed and mobile telephony solutions alongside data connectivity.

Siebert's 16 staff spread between Glasgow and Aberdeen will remain with the company including one of its founders Alan Muir who will join Arrow Scotland's management team, led by Sue Woodrow, alongside Wayne Mackay and Rory McEwan who joined Arrow following the acquisition of Orca Telecom in 2014.

According to Arrow, Muir will continue to play a key role in leading the primary customer relationships that Siebert has developed.

The business will be lead by Richard Burke, who was appointed MD at Arrow three months ago to support the company as it continues to expand its national presence and product portfolio.

Collectively, Arrow Scotland will have 850 customers, some 4,000 hosted seats and over 20 staff supported from the Glasgow and Aberdeen locations.

Chris Russell, CEO of Arrow, commented: "The acquisition of Orca Telecom three years ago. Adding Siebert's 16 staff to the Arrow Scotland team will expand our local customer support and fits with Arrow's 'buy, build and stay local' strategy.

"Our third acquisition of 2017 adds further geographic and product portfolio diversity to Arrow and completes the achievement of our key objectives for the year."
