WiZiX Technology Group's acquisition of CBM strengthens its presence in the office equipment sector.
WiZiX Technology Group has acquired California Business Machines, marking its seventh acquisition in just seven years. CBM, a well-known provider of office equipment since 1953, will operate as an independent subsidiary under WiZiX. Teri Brymer, daughter of the founders, will lead CBM and continue its legacy of strong customer relationships. The acquisition is part of WiZiX’s aggressive growth strategy, emphasizing service excellence and customer satisfaction, with plans for further expansion in the office technology sector.
California Business Machines, Inc. (CBM), a well-established office equipment provider based in Fresno, has been acquired by Sacramento’s WiZiX Technology Group, Inc. This acquisition is significant as it marks the seventh acquisition for WiZiX, which has only been in operation for seven years. The decision reflects WiZiX’s aggressive expansion strategy within the office supply and technology sector.
Founded in 1953 by Ray and Lorraine McNally, CBM has earned a reputation for excellence in office automation technology, combining retail and service offerings. Teri Brymer, the current manager and daughter of the founders, will continue to lead CBM as an independent, wholly owned subsidiary under the WiZiX umbrella. She is committed to maintaining the company’s tradition of familial relationships with both employees and customers, stemming from her long-term involvement in the business since attending Fresno State in the early 1970s.
The integration of CBM into WiZiX is anticipated to be smooth, given that both companies prioritize customer service, support, and satisfaction. Gary Johnson, president and CEO of WiZiX, has expressed enthusiasm regarding the partnership with Brymer, highlighting both his personal connections to Fresno and his extensive experience in the industry. The synergy between the two companies is expected to foster continued growth and enhanced service delivery.
This acquisition is also part of WiZiX’s broader plan to accelerate its growth. The company has previously acquired six other establishments, such as Stanton Office Machines and Toshiba America Business Solutions, which underscores its commitment to becoming a leading force in the office technology sector. WiZiX has successfully attributed over 60% of its revenue to organic growth, indicating its robust business model and market presence.
As WiZiX approaches the start of its eighth year in business, it is projected to close another acquisition on October 1. This continued expansion demonstrates the company’s ambition to capture a larger share of the market while enhancing its service capabilities through strategic partnerships.
California Business Machines has not only established itself as a reliable office equipment supplier but has also garnered accolades over the years. The company has been a repeated recipient of the Best of Central Valley Business Readers’ Choice Award, winning in the category of Best Office Equipment Company on nine occasions. This consistent recognition reflects CBM’s deep-rooted commitment to quality service and customer satisfaction, factors that will remain central to its operations under the new ownership.
The acquisition of California Business Machines by WiZiX Technology Group marks a pivotal moment for both companies, as they look to expand their influence in the office technology landscape. With a shared focus on family-like customer relationships and service excellence, the transition aims to benefit employees and clients alike. This deal not only continues CBM’s legacy in the Fresno area but also strengthens WiZiX’s position in the competitive market of office automation and equipment.
