TOPP Business Solutions (TBS), one of the region\u2019s largest family-owned office automation dealers, is expanding with the acquisition of Dunmore, PA-based Technic IT Group, LLC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is truly a win-win for all involved,\u201d said Brad Lehman, TOPP Business Solutions COO. \u201cOur goal is to expand our focus and bring our excellent products and services to all current and potential customers within the managed IT Services regional marketplace.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Technic owner John Martines said, \u201cWhen two of the best providers in the office solutions space join forces, it creates positive results for both the customers of TOPP and Technic going forward.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TBS, now in its third generation of family leadership, employs approximately 100 people who operate from its four Pennsylvania locations in Scranton, Allentown, Montoursville and Altoona. In 2019, TBS generated over $20 million in revenue and has been providing business and office technology services to the Northeast, Central and Leigh Valley of Pennsylvania\u2019s local industries for over 60 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe needed to further position ourselves as a leading force in the industry within our Pennsylvania marketplace. With the addition of Technic, TBS will further solidify its position as the most advanced technology service provider available,\u201d said Chris Falzett, vice president of sales for TBS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt is clear our customers are changing and expect more from their vendors,\u201d Paul Falzett, Topp Business Solutions CEO, said. \u201cMany of our current copier customers have expressed interest in having one provider to handle both their print and IT services needs and having the Technic team join us will certainly help us deliver on those customer expectations.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TBS President Bill Truchan, an expert in the field of mergers and acquisitions, seeks to create further expansion for the company in the near future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TBS looks forward to the new relationship with Technic customers and anticipates continued growth that fulfills the TBS mission created by Angelo Falzett in 1957: Give people quality products at a fair price, provide prompt, courteous service, and develop long-term relationships with your customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
