Our History

img

The Group was established in 1986 by businessman John Curry as an electronic component and IT distributor. Since 2010, the Group has transformed from a European distribution business into an international electronic engineering group, with its own product development and a global manufacturing footprint.

The sale of the Acal BFi distribution business in March 2022 was a significant milestone in the Group's transformation journey, completing its exit from the distribution business and becoming a pure design and manufacturing company. Over the past decade, the Group has expanded globally through both organic growth and acquisitions, and has so far built up a group of over 30 businesses which operate under their own brands.
