2024-10-30

Indutrade has signed an agreement to acquire all shares in the British company Tidyco Ltd., www.tidyco.co.uk, with annual sales of approximately GBP 13 million (SEK 180 million).

Tidyco is a component manufacturer and technical trading partner within hydraulics and pneumatics. The company offers a broad range of products and assemblies, as well as overhaul services, to the British railway industry. The main focus is on the aftermarket of rail rolling stock, but Tidyco also serves other industrial segments with its core offering. The company has significant application expertise, a high degree of consultative sales and long-lasting relations with its customers and suppliers.

Tidyco was founded in 1973, has 79 employees and is located in Derby, UK. The acquisition strengthens Indutrade’s position in attractive market segments in the UK.

The closing took place on 29 October and Tidyco will be included in Indutrade's Business Area Industrial & Engineering. The acquisition is Indutrade's 14th in 2024 and is expected to have a marginally positive impact on Indutrade's earnings per share.
