Online News-Edwards Canada Announces Business Acquisitions
Edwards Canada announced that it has acquired several fire safety and security related businesses to offer the ease of addressing all needs for building safety systems to its customers under a single roof.
The North American fire alarm markets have seen many larger international companies adopt mergers and acquisitions as a key strategy to increase their market share and to have a better control on influencing many aspects of the business.
Although Edwards Canada is slightly smaller than these companies, it has also successfully implemented a strategy of going beyond the fire and have acquired related businesses to offer the ease of addressing all their needs for building safety systems to its customers under a single roof. Bundling of services is what attracts the customers, and since sprinklers and fire alarm systems coexist in commercial buildings it makes sense for customers to opt for companies that can offer maintenance services for both.
