Advania Sweden strengthens its hardware offering through the acquisition of 3StepIT’s Front End Services

The transaction includes a transfer of highly specialized employees and a state-of-the-art logistic center tailored for Front End Services. This will allow Advania to continue to build the highest level of quality hardware solutions for its customers.

Front End Services will allow Advania to personalize the IT equipment before it arrives to the customer, including services like personal email account, delivery, installation of software and repackaging. Advania is happy to welcome new employees to the group and to continue to create a first-class workplace. The Advania group aims to become the preferred IT service provider in Northern Europe and offer holistic one stop shop solutions to existing and new customers.

– The key reason for pursuing this transaction is to increase the quality to our existing customers. Based on the large volume of devices we provide to our customers, we can now further strengthen our offering with cost efficient and seamless solutions to the market, says Tomas Wanselius, CEO of Advania Sweden.

Through the solid relationship between Advania and 3StepIT over many years, the parties have concluded that the Front End Services should be operated by Advania to accelerate growth in the core businesses for both companies.

– After successfully having built a first-class logistic and configuration center that provide a full range of Front End Services, we believe that Advania is the logical partner to accelerate and take the operations to the next level. I’m very proud of the skilled employees that now will change employer. Advania now have every opportunity to develop a best-of-bread hardware offering in the market, says Jakob Lagander, CEO of Sweden.
