Xerox has acquired Concept Group, a supplier of digital document offerings with nine locations in the UK.
The move is believed to be a part of the broader Xerox startegy to expand its reach in the small and medium-sized business (SMB) market in the UK.
Concept Group provides document imaging offerings and technical service to approximately 3,000 customers from Aberdeen to London.
Concept Group will carry an array of Xerox office products and supplies, including all Phaser, WorkCentre and ColorQube printers and multifunction systems, which print, copy, fax and scan, and it will service Xerox devices.
In addition, Concept Group will expand to carry Xerox’s light production printing products, which will also be a market differentiator for the Concept Group team.
Xerox said that the Concept Group will operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company, working in parallel with its other distribution channels in the region.
Further, Concept Group will maintain its name and keep its headquarters in Livingston, and its employees will continue to operate as part of Concept Group.
Xerox indirect channels group president Douraid Zaghouani said Channel expansion continues to be a key aspect of the Xerox strategy for Europe.
"With Concept Group, we significantly increase our presence across the UK, bringing the right talent, the right coverage and the right positioning to this vital market," Zaghouani said.
