Nestit Group Acquires Finnish IT Firm DL Data Oy

Nestit Group, a rapidly expanding Nordic IT and office solutions provider, has further cemented its Finnish market presence through the acquisition of DL Data Oy. The deal, executed via Nestit's subsidiary Verano, integrates DL Data's established IT support and services operations into the group's growing network. This strategic move bolsters Verano's capabilities in Finland and aligns with Nestit's overarching ambition to become a leading force across the Nordic region.

DL Data Oy, headquartered in Lapua, Finland, specializes in providing essential IT maintenance, management, and support services tailored for small and medium-sized businesses. The company also offers a comprehensive suite of hardware, third-party software, and related services, demonstrating a robust technical foundation and a strong commitment to client relationships. Its long-standing operational approach has cultivated significant market credibility within its service area.

The integration of DL Data Oy into the Verano fold is expected to unlock synergistic benefits. According to Olli Rikala, Country Manager Finland at Verano, DL Data represents a well-managed entity with deep technical acumen and a distinct customer-centric philosophy. This acquisition is seen as a key step in enhancing Verano's service delivery and expanding its client base within Finland.

Antti Jokiranta, CEO of DL Data Oy, expressed enthusiasm for the transition, highlighting the opportunities for enhanced customer value. "Joining forces with Verano and the wider Nestit Group marks an exciting new chapter for us," Jokiranta stated. "We anticipate leveraging the group's extensive resources and broader expertise to deliver even greater benefits to our existing clientele."

Founded in 2024 by MVI, Nestit Group has rapidly assembled a portfolio of 16 companies across the Nordic countries. The group's consolidated revenue now surpasses SEK 1 billion (approximately EUR 90 million), underscoring its significant scale and market penetration. Nestit Group's growth strategy is firmly rooted in acquiring entrepreneur-led businesses, integrating their local market knowledge with the group's comprehensive IT infrastructure, cybersecurity, and workplace solutions.

This latest acquisition of DL Data Oy exemplifies Nestit Group's successful buy-and-build strategy. By consistently integrating specialized IT service providers, Nestit is effectively consolidating the fragmented Nordic IT services market. The group's expansion is particularly noteworthy in a sector characterized by increasing demand for integrated digital solutions and robust cybersecurity measures, driven by the ongoing digital transformation initiatives of SMBs across Europe.
