Gradwell Communications has acquired Exeter-based 3CX Platinum Partner Grapevine Connect, to expand its customer base across the south west.
The Grapevine brand will be gradually retired and all customers will be migrated to Gradwell. Grapevine was already a Gradwell partner, with Gradwell having recently taken over the support of Grapevine customers while the founders established their new venture.
Grapevine is Gradwell’s second acquisition in recent years, following the addition of The Technology Group (TTG) in 2021.
Jamie Ward, CEO of Gradwell, said: “As Grapevine were already a partner, we expect a smooth transition and integration for the customer base and look forward to working with the Grapevine team”.
“This will be the first of several M&A activities for us in the near future.”
Martin Cox, Founder of Grapevine Connect added: “Gradwell have been a strategic partner of ours for several years, and over the last few months they have done a great job in supporting our customer base.”
