Bidvest Namibia IT becomes Acunam Technology Group
“As of 01 September, Bidvest Namibia IT is known as Acunam Technology Group, and we are extremely excited about this change and the future of our group and its customers,” said Pierre Joubert, new owner of Acunam Technology Group. Joubert, who was instrumental in establishing Bidvest Namibia IT more than 10 years ago, explained that the ownership opportunity was presented to him due to strategic changes within the Bidvest Namibia group.
He enthused: “During the past 10 years, we have built an awesome team, and I’m so proud of what we have achieved. I am very grateful for the opportunity, and thankful of my fellow shareholders, The Logos Group, who assisted in making this dream come true.”
“The foundation of the name Acunam is derived from the word Acumen, which refers to a keen insight, especially in business matters. Acumen encapsulates quickness, accuracy and discernment. The ‘nam’ in Acunam refers to Namibia because we’re Namibian, and we love our country and its people! Acunam is a unique and unmistakable name. We believe that it will be instantly recognisable, and we are here to make a difference in Namibia,” beamed Joubert.
He also stated that Acunam does not only provide information technology products and services, but comprehensive solutions, tailor-made to suit each customer’s unique requirements. Experience has proven this business philosophy as a win-win for all. Joubert furthermore reiterated that Acunam believes that “teamwork makes the dream work”, and the vital role that each employee in the Acunam team plays toward success cannot be overstated.
Having led the Bidvest Namibia IT team for the last 10 years, Joubert humbly looks back at many highlights and milestones, and is proud of the solutions provided to many satisfied customers. “We look forward to being of assistance to our existing customer base, and of course, new customers with our unique cloud services and managed IT solutions for day-to-day operations. Our approach is “XaaS”, or anything-as-aservice, which greatly assists our customers with predictability in their monthly IT costs. Our dedicated sales team is always ready to assist with solutions involving most well-known hardware and software brands,” he added.
