Chess set for acquisition course

VAR hints at purchase in the coming week with more to come in New Year

Acquisition-hungry reseller Chess will reopen its active chequebook next week to mark the VAR’s 13th acquisition since April 2004.

It has also hinted at a major deal in the near future.

Richard Btesh, director of corporate finance at Chess, told CRN: “Expect another [acquisition] next week, another in January and a major one in three or four months time, which will be a huge step up for us.”
