Convergint expands with acquisition of Chinese and Canadian firms

SCHAUMBURG, USA: Suburban-Chicago based Convergint Technologies announced its second acquisition within the last 30 days with the purchase of FSC, a provider of physical security systems and services throughout Eastern Canada.

Last month, Convergint announced the acquisition of ICD Security Solutions, a provider of physical security systems and services throughout the Asia Pacific region.

Founded in 1982 by its current CEO Sam Shalaby, Convergint and FSC will integrate their businesses, located in Toronto and Ottawa, resulting in one of the strongest physical security solution and service providers in Eastern Canada.

FSC and Convergint also share similar company cultures which makes the integration of our two organizations a natural fit."
