Business
ALSO Holding AG ALSO Holding AG (ALSN.SW) is Europe's leading independent technology service provider for the ICT industry, distributing hardware, software and IT services to approximately 120,000 resellers from more than 700 vendors across over 1,450 product categories; the company operates three core divisions including Supply for transactional hardware and software provisioning, Solutions for customized IT development, and Service for subscription-based cloud offerings and digital platforms encompassing IoT, cybersecurity, virtualization, AI and cloud gaming. Founded in 1984 and headquartered in Emmen, Switzerland, ALSO Holding AG serves business partners such as resellers, system integrators and retailers primarily through a B2B model in 31 European countries including Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, the UK and Italy, with additional value-added services in logistics, finance, professional services, premium support, cloud management and migration assessments. The company partners with major vendors like Microsoft, Cisco and HP, providing everything-as-a-service (XaaS), e-commerce integration via myStore white-label marketplace and sustainable IT solutions from provisioning to refurbishment in line with its circular economy approach. In recent developments, ALSO Holding AG signed a strategic partnership contract with Westcoast Ltd., a leading UK ICT distributor, in July 2024 to enhance its global position, market access and offerings in cloud, AI, IoT and cybersecurity while retaining Westcoast's brand and operations under the company's Transformative Integration program that has supported nearly 30 acquisitions over the past 12 years. The company completed acquisitions of SWS and Entec in the Czech Republic and Slovakia in 2024, strengthening its full product portfolio availability in Central Europe, and enhanced its presence in Italy through further expansion initiatives. In March 2024, ALSO Holding AG finalized its succession planning by appointing Wolfgang Krainz as new CEO and member of the Group Management Board, alongside defining areas of responsibility for the updated management team including CFO Andreas Kuhn, CTO Jan Bogdanovich and COO Thomas Meyerhans.
