The transaction

Canon Business Center Michiels was a long-established Belgian specialist in printers, scanning systems and document workflows, serving customers across Antwerp, Flemish Brabant and Limburg. Founded in 1952, the business had built a strong regional reputation around technical expertise, responsive service and close customer relationships.

iDocta acquired the activities of Michiels alongside Picard Document Solutions, increasing its scale by approximately 50% and becoming Belgium’s largest independent provider of printers and document solutions. Following the transaction, the enlarged business supports more than 15,000 devices through a team of almost 80 people. Existing customer contacts and service arrangements were retained, while clients gained access to broader technical coverage and expertise. Mute Invest advised on the transaction.
