Lancashire-based VAR Daisy Communications has bolstered its customer base with its 19th acquisition.

The firm has taken more than 3,700 customers from Wiltshire-based 4Com, in a deal worth £5.5m. Daisy estimates the buy will add £8.4m to its annual turnover.

Following the acquisition, 4Com will continue as a separate company.
