Redsquid has acquired RedMosquito Limited for an undisclosed amount, a corporate acquisition aimed at expanding its technology services. RedMosquito, established in 1999, is an IT support specialist and managed service provider, known as "Your Trusted Technology Partner." Operating from Glasgow and Edinburgh, with a UK-wide client network, this transaction significantly expands Redsquid's operational footprint and service capabilities. This is a direct purchase of a company, not a funding round.
RedMosquito's core offerings include comprehensive IT services. These encompass server and desktop monitoring and support, managed services like patch management, security, and backup, along with cloud integration and Office 365 migration. They also provide network installation, IT consultancy, Apple Mac support, hardware and software procurement, and connectivity consultancy. The company holds ISO9001 and ISO27001 certifications, reflecting its focus on quality and secure managed IT, cloud solutions, and cyber security.
This acquisition is strategically aimed at enhancing Redsquid's market presence and service portfolio. By integrating RedMosquito's operations in Scotland, Redsquid gains a regional hub in Glasgow and Edinburgh and expands its UK reach. The addition of RedMosquito's expertise in managed IT services, cyber security, cloud solutions, and telecommunications is expected to create synergies. This will allow Redsquid to offer a broader and more integrated suite of technology solutions to an expanded client base.
The combined entity is poised to leverage RedMosquito's established reputation for quality IT services and client relationships. This strategic purchase consolidates expertise and operational efficiency. Looking forward, the integration is expected to create a stronger, more diversified technology partner, equipped to support businesses with comprehensive and secure IT environments across an expanded geographic area.
