SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Usherwood Office Technology on Monday announced it has acquired Reprographics of New England (Repro), a privately owned, office-technology provider in Winooski, Vermont.
Usherwood didn’t disclose the acquisition price in its Monday announcement.
Ken Stinson, president of Usherwood Office Technology, calls the Repro acquisition an “exciting opportunity” to continue its growth in the New England region.
“Repro has done a fantastic job caring for clients and people,” Stinson said in a release. “Usherwood, as a third-generation family-owned business, appreciates that care as it fits perfectly with our culture. In an industry that is full of multi-billion-dollar manufacturers and venture capital-backed dealerships that are looking to acquire and cash out, Usherwood continues to grow while remaining fiercely independent and client-focused. We are proud to have the opportunity to grow our presence in Vermont and New Hampshire, where they appreciate those traits in a business partner.”
Usherwood currently has 144 employees. The firm didn’t disclose the number of employees that would be joining Usherwood from Repro.
“The acquisition of Repro allows Usherwood to augment our client base in northern New York, Vermont, and New Hampshire,” Louis Usherwood, CEO of Usherwood Office Technology, said. “This is our second acquisition in the greater Burlington, Vermont area, and we are very pleased with the talent joining our company. The cultures at Repro and Usherwood are very complementary, and we look forward to providing world-class service to our new clients.”
Both companies are authorized Canon dealers, so clients “can expect a seamless transition” with the benefits of the product and “highly trained” technical-service staff, Usherwood said.
Launched in 1976 and based in Syracuse, Usherwood Office Technology is a family-owned company. It has been a regional provider of IT products and services throughout New York and New England with more than 140 employees serving 8,000 clients in the Northeast.
