Babble has bolstered its footprint in Yorkshire and Essex after sealing its fourth double acquisition this year, buying Wakefield-based independent technology provider Yorkshire Telecom/Biscuit IT and Basildon-based mobile services provider ADSI.
The double swoop strengthens Babble’s comms and cyber offerings and brings 390 customers across the north of England, all of whom will benefit from Babble’s more extensive offering, the firm said.
ADSI serves 4,650 customers across the South-East of England and London with 30,000 O2 mobile connections which will add scale to Babble’s Mobile division.
Matt Parker, Babble CEO, said: “Making sure existing customers continue to receive the same level of service will be our top priority throughout the onboarding process.
“We know our success depends upon us continuing to provide our clients with the personalised and local service that they expect, regardless of where they are in the country. That’s what has taken us to where we are now and it’s something we’ll never lose sight of.”
All staff members from the acquired firms will join the Babble team and bring fresh insights and experience, with Phill Burke, Yorkshire Telecom MD, and Adrian Spreadborough, ADSI CEO, remaining in a consultancy capacity to ensure a smooth transition.
Burke said: “Supporting businesses and their individual communication requirements has always been a priority for us and we can take that further with Babble to help our customers achieve their highest potential."
Spreadborough, added: “Together, Babble and ADSI will be a formidable force. With our combined resources and our joint commitment to providing a personalised service, we can do even better when it comes to empowering our customers.”
