- Northamber plc is a value-added distributor specializing in technology products and solutions with a primary focus on the audio-visual (AV), unified communications (UC), IT, and cybersecurity sectors. The company offers a comprehensive range of products and services including AV hardware, UC collaboration tools, IT infrastructure components, cybersecurity solutions, specialist support, provisioning, and configuration services. Northamber serves a diverse customer base across the UK, Ireland, and the Benelux region, targeting mid-market and enterprise customers, public-sector organizations, and carrier/service-provider segments. The company was founded over 45 years ago and is headquartered in London, United Kingdom.
Recent strategic developments have significantly expanded Northamber's capabilities and market presence. In 2025, Northamber acquired the hardware business of Nuvias UC, including its specialist team, for £7.1 million, enhancing its AV and UC hardware offerings and strengthening its position as a leading value-added collaboration distributor in the UK. This acquisition adds to the company's existing portfolio, which already includes AV, UC&C, and smart-office solutions, and brings more than 700 UK customers into Northamber’s ecosystem. Earlier expansions include the acquisition of Tempura Communications in 2024, which broadened its UC&C specialization, and the purchase of Epatra in the Benelux region in early 2025, marking Northamber’s strategic move into the European market. The company also acquired Renaissance Contingency Services in 2024 to bolster its cybersecurity capabilities.
Northamber operates across multiple business segments including AV, UC&C, cybersecurity, and network infrastructure, with over 80% of its sales coming from these areas. The company emphasizes a technical, solutions-led approach that combines product distribution with value-added services such as technical pre-sales support, enhanced warranty, provisioning, and configuration. This business model aims to meet vendor demands for specialist partners with scale and technical depth and to provide customers with complete end-to-end collaboration technology solutions through a single, integrated platform.
Northamber continues to focus on organic growth and strategic acquisitions to deepen its technical expertise, expand its geographic footprint, and enhance its product and service offerings. Its subsidiaries now include acquired entities such as Tempura Communications, Epatra, and the Nuvias UC hardware business, supporting its ambition to be a leading technical value-add distributor across the UK, Ireland, and continental Europe. The company is publicly traded on the London Stock Exchange under the ticker NAR.L.
