Computers Unlimited becomes Exertis Unlimited

Distributor Exertis has announced that Computers Unlimited (CU) has today legally transitioned to become a division of Exertis UK – and has rebranded to Exertis Unlimited.

CU was acquired by Exertis in May 2015 and supplies third-party branded software, IT hardware and consumer electronics products to over 2,000 customers in the UK and Continental Europe.

Gerry O’Keeffe, Exertis UK and Ireland MD, said: “Since the acquisition of CU, we have had the opportunity to work together, leveraging the skills and product categories of both companies.

"Exertis Unlimited becomes a key business unit that complements our strategy of providing specialism and expertise right across the technology sector for a diverse set of customers.”

Tony Taylor, chief operating officer at Exertis Unlimited, added: “By retaining the Unlimited name, we’re recognising the unique culture, values and skills that have been built over the last 30 years.

"It’s also a strong statement to our vendors and customers that we will continue to offer the services and support that they have enjoyed, enhanced by the reach and resources of Exertis.”

Existing contact details for CU remain for Exertis Unlimited.

Exertis has made a number of acquisitions in recent years, and has plans to make further acquisitions in other territories.
