The Peterborough-based Rydal Group, which is a UK telecoms and managed IT provider, has today announced that they’ve acquired the Cambridgeshire-based data centre (they have one site in Huntingdon), phone and broadband provider Merula for an undisclosed sum.

According to the blurb, the acquisition “empowers Rydal Group to provide more comprehensive, controlled, and robust service offerings, including access to dedicated rack space and the ability to leverage multiple broadband options such as traditional broadband, mobile, and satellite services” through Merula’s own data centre.

The acquisition is said to align with the Rydal Group’s long-term strategy of growth and investment, “ensuring that both partners and customers benefit from expanded services that are directly owned and operated by the group“. The integration of Merula’s services with Rydal’s existing portfolio will also create a more unified and expanded offering for connectivity, phone systems, mobile solutions, IT MSP support, and more.

Steffan Dancy, CEO of Rydal Group, said:

“Acquiring Merula Limited is a significant step forward for Rydal Group. By bringing the data centre and ISP capabilities in-house, and with the launch of our new partner portal, we’re able to fully control our infrastructure, enhancing the quality, flexibility, and value of the services we offer both our partners and customers. This acquisition positions Rydal and those we serve at the forefront of technological advancement in an increasingly competitive industry.”

Under the deal Richard Palmer, Managing Director of Merula Limited, will transition into a new role as Group Technical Lead, focusing on infrastructure development and innovation within the newly combined entity. The Merula team will remain in place to ensure continuity of service for existing customers.
