The acquisition of MB El-Service ApS is intended to help meet the growing demand for the installation and servicing of charging points for electric and hybrid cars
The managing director reveals that this is just the first in a series of acquisitions designed to make them the Nordic market leader.
Although, according to figures from Dansk Energi, there are already more charging points than petrol stations in Denmark, demand for charging points continues to rise steadily. As political support grows and Danes increasingly opt for greener vehicles, more people are finding they need to be able to charge their electric or hybrid cars whilst on the road. This is evident at TSG Nordic A/S, the leading supplier of equipment and services to petrol stations in Europe. They have just acquired the electrical installation company MB El-Service ApS in order to keep pace with demand. This forms part of a strategy designed to ensure that they also maintain a leading position when it comes to the installation and servicing of charging points in the Nordic region.
“We have big ambitions for our growth, and now we’re putting the power behind it,” says Susanne Svarre, Managing Director of TSG Nordic A/S. She continues: “Things are really taking off in the electric and hybrid market – we can clearly see this in the volume of orders we’re receiving for charging stations. This also means that, in addition to installation, there will be a need for ongoing maintenance, and we need more skilled staff to take on that task. We are now securing this with the acquisition of MB El-Service.”
A shared focus on quality
It is no coincidence that the choice fell on the Zealand-based electrician:
“They are very committed to high-quality craftsmanship. And as safety must be of the highest standard in our products and services, high-quality craftsmanship is something we simply will not compromise on. That is why it was absolutely crucial for us to acquire a company that is known – just as we are – for delivering the best service and customer experience on the market. That is MB El-Service, so it is this shared focus on quality that now forms the foundation of our strong partnership, and I have very high hopes and expectations for it,” says the managing director.
The new company within the TSG Group shares in this sense of anticipation:
“I am looking forward to being part of the great success that TSG Nordic is enjoying in the field of e-mobility,” adds Morten Møller Bertelsen, who is the managing director at MB El-Service ApS.
From 8 June, staff from MB El-Service ApS will become an integral part of the operations department at TSG Nordic A/S.
“TSG offers robust and reliable solutions, whilst we, for our part, are experts in areas such as smart installations, data, property services and surveillance – and these are, of course, the skills we bring to the partnership, which will undoubtedly help to ensure consistently high quality. As I see it, we’re simply a perfect fit, as we say in the industry,” laughs Morten Møller Bertelsen, who is pleased with the new arrangement.
MB El-Service’s core business consists primarily of projects for the commercial sector, which will help to strengthen TSG Nordic’s position amongst industrial and commercial customers as part of its comprehensive growth strategy.
