Primary-backed ASL Group, a managed office services provider, has acquired Liverpool-headquartered managed print service (“MPS”) provider B&M Office Machines Ltd.

ASL has a defined strategy of acquiring high-quality MPS providers to create a leading managed services provider in the fragmented UK market. The purchase of B&M Digital, will further extend ASL’s provision of MPS across the Midlands and North West, providing customers with an enhanced level of service. The Group now supports over 7,000 customers with impartial, independent advice for all business office requirements.

Mark Garius, Managing Director of ASL said, “It’s very exciting to kick off 2020 with a new acquisition. B&M have an outstanding reputation and this acquisition enables us to utilise B&M’s expertise and combine it with our own – strengthening our service offering for customers.”

Alec Parkinson, Partner at Primary Capital and non-executive director, commented, “We are delighted to welcome B&M Digital to the ASL Group. This further enhances ASL’s position as a leading Ricoh partner in the UK, and we look forward to continuing to support ASL with future acquisitions. 

This acquisition is ASL’s fourth in 14 months, following Smart Print Technology, Reprotec and Geerings Digital Ltd.
