International wholesale distributor for computer consumables and data-storage products

The company was established in 2001 as a “Besloten Vennootschap” (limited company according to Dutch law). The Head Office is strategically located in The Netherlands and has its own (rented) state-of-the-art logistics center, offering significant stocks and superb service levels to customers. Next to The Netherlands, a second Sales Office is located in London. In 2019 the company has 15 employees, of which 9 in The Netherlands and 6 in the UK.

During the past years the company has developed an online webshop, which has entailed in the increase of product range from 300 (2014) to over 3000 (2020) products. The company now sells both directly and online to distributors and dealers, which further improves the sales volumes and average gross margins. The webshop offers easy ordering and online account administration management.

Strategic and / or private investors are offered a unique chance to purchase the shares of a rapidly growing international wholesale distributor, offering branded OEM computer consumables and data-storage products to resellers, across Europe and beyond, focusing on Germany and the Benelux-countries. The company does not sell to end users.

Relevant competitive advantages include multilingual sales specialists with in depth product knowledge as well as a procurement team with significant industry experience.

The well-known reputation of the company is widely respected in the market and allows it to carefully select its clients.

During the past 10 years the company has always shown a substantial volume in sales (> € 30 million) and EBITDA each year. An onerous contract with a large customer in 2016 has temporarily resulted in a decrease in sales and a write-down of the relevant claim by the company. Presently the account-management has been restored and the sales volumes and EBITDA figures are growing again, with the realistic potential to reach sales levels > € 50 million and EBITDA levels > € 1,5 million, including synergies that a strategic buyer will be able to realize.

The financial position of the company is excellent. Due to the nature of the business, the main assets of the company are inventory (average turnover approximately 36 days) and trade receivables (average approximately 30 days).The outstanding quality of its product- and client portfolio allows the company an advantageous and fitting factoring financing arrangement with a world class international bank.
