Bidvest Acquires Roan Safety Products

Dear Valued Customer / Supplier
Bidvest acquires Roan Safety Products
We are excited to announce that Bidvest has acquired Roan Safety Products, as well as other companies in the Roan Systems Group of Companies (RSG), effective on 1 April 2023.
The JSE-listed Bidvest group is a leading international services, trading and distribution group which operates in areas of consumer, pharmaceutical and industrial products, financial services, freight management, office and print solutions, outsourced hard and soft services, travel services and automotive retailing.
The Bidvest Data, Print & Packaging division is a leading supplier of print, data, packaging and labelling solutions and the acquisition is in line with its drive to expand into the safety solutions space.
Colin Adendorff, CEO of the Bidvest Data, Print & Packaging division, said that Roan Safety Products presented an attractive investment option as it is a complementary fit to the products and services in this division.
He added that Bidvest was attracted by Roan Safety Products’ solid reputation of 16 years, having achieved consistent superior performance, a portfolio of excellent products and quality services, cost competitiveness and customer satisfaction.
On behalf of Roan Safety Products, we are excited to be part of this dynamic JSE-listed. Bidvest understands local markets, and its highly entrepreneurial ethos and decentralised management and operations will allow us to continue to expand and bring additional value to you, our customer, as well as other stakeholders.
The acquisition will provide great opportunities for synergies and growth for Roan Safety Products, and various Bidvest companies.
We commit to the same superior service for our valued customers, and we will continue to support existing contracts.
We look forward to your support on this new journey and will keep you informed on processes as we go along! Please don’t hesitate to contact us for more information.
Kind regards
Frikkie Koegelenberg
Group CEO
