As part of its Power Up 2025 plan, Rexel announces today three transactions, two acquisitions in North America and the divestment of its activities in Norway, further strengthening the Group\u2019s portfolio.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/p>\n
- \n
- The acquisition of Buckles Smith Electric Company in the USA was signed and closed on January 5, 2023.<\/li>\n
- The acquisition of Lineman\u2019s Testing Laboratories in Canada was signed and closed on January 17, 2023.<\/li>\n
- Rexel also announces the signing of the divestment of its operations in Norway to Kesko on January 27, 2023. The completion of the transaction is subject to the approval of Norway\u2019s competition authority.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The three transactions combined will be accretive in year 1 to Rexel\u2019s profitability, earnings, and Return On Capital Employed (ROCE). They are fully in line with the Power Up 2025 strategic roadmap announced in June 2022.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The acquisition of Buckles Smith Electric Company in the USA was signed and closed on January 5, 2023. A recognized industrial automation player and authorized reseller of Rockwell automation solutions, Buckles Smith reinforces Rexel\u2019s expertise, footprint and customer relationship capabilities in the San Francisco Bay area. The combination of both companies will allow them to accelerate development in a high growth and technologyoriented area. Buckles Smith operates 6 branches and generated 2022 sales of c. USD150m.<\/p>\n
The acquisition of Lineman\u2019s Testing Laboratories in Canada was signed and closed on January 17, 2023. This company expands Rexel Canada\u2019s footprint in the attractive utility market with a set of services, products and solutions that will be a valuable complement to Rexel\u2019s portfolio. Lineman\u2019s Testing Laboratories operates 2 branches and generated sales of c. CAD 25m in 2022.<\/p>\n
Rexel also announces the signing of the divestment of its operations in Norway to Kesko on January 27, 2023. Rexel\u2019s activities in Norway, generating sales of approximately \u20ac250m in 2022, were less profitable than Group average and presented less strategic and value creation potential for the future. The completion of the transaction is subject to the approval of Norway\u2019s competition authority.<\/p>\n
The three transactions combined will be accretive in year 1 to Rexel\u2019s profitability, earnings, and Return On Capital Employed (ROCE). They are fully in line with the Power Up 2025 strategic roadmap announced in June 2022.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Since January 1, 2021, through 10 transactions including those announced today, Rexel has acquired c. \u20ac1.5bn of sales and divested c. \u20ac0.5bn of sales, materially enhancing the Group\u2019s growth and profitability profile and reinforcing its capabilities to address the challenges and opportunities of the energy transition and electrification trends.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

More information on Rexel Canada (Nedco, Westburne, Rexel Atlantic and Rexel Utility):<\/strong>\u00a0https:\/\/rexel.ca<\/a>\u00a0+ Rexel Canada is a leading distributor of electrical products. We deliver quality products and high quality services. Our strategy of partnering with best in class suppliers ensures our customers have access to the best products available on the market.<\/p>\n
Westburne\u2019s story began in 1926 when a gas boom in Turner\u00a0Valley, Alberta prompted a group of Calgary businessmen to form a small exploration company. This company, Ainsworth Oils Limited, later became Commonwealth Petroleum Ltd., which John Scrymgeour and his partner Bill Atkinson acquired in 1959. Mr. Scrymgeour was Chairman of the Board of\u00a0Westburne International Industries Ltd. and he later combined Commonwealth and General Petroleums of Canada, two of the oldest contract drilling firms in Canada, to launch the Westburne group of drilling companies.<\/p>\n
With the future in mind, Westburne Oil Company Limited changed its name subsequently to United Westburne Industries Limited.<\/p>\n
In 1971, United Westburne entered the Canadian electrical supply industry, and continued to expand through various acquisitions over the\u00a0years. Indeed, 1979 was a pivotal year for United Westburne in the electrical supply industry when it completed the acquisition of Nedco and Zentronics from\u00a0Northern Telecom.<\/p>\n
These acquisitions established United Westburne as a major nationwide distributor of electrical, electronics and telecommunications products to the commercial and industrial market sectors. Commencing in 1986,\u00a0Westburne added refrigeration, air conditioning and ventilation supplies to its\u00a0product line through a series of acquisitions of Canadian companies involved in\u00a0these areas in Canada and the United States.<\/p>\n
In 1995, United Westburne changed its name to Westburne Inc.\u00a0and continued to expand in Canada and the United States by completing various\u00a0acquisitions that added 81 branches to its existing network. In forty years,\u00a0Westburne has become the largest North American wholesaler and integrated\u00a0distributor of construction, industrial and commercial supplies.<\/p>\n
On September 25, 2000 Rexel SA, a world leader in the\u00a0distribution of electrical supplies with a presence on 4 continents and in more\u00a0than 30 countries entered the Canadian market by completing the acquisition of\u00a0all the shares of Westburne Inc. Thus\u00a0Rexel Canada was born.<\/p>\n
Recently, Rexel Canada acquired Wesco Utility and renamed it Rexel Utility. Rexel Utility is the distributor of choice for investor-owned utilities (IOUs), public power municipalities, rural electrification associations (REA\u2019s) and contractors seeking solutions for transmission, distribution and substation projects.<\/p>\n
