TORONTO, Jan. 7, 2016 /CNW/ -- Fleet Complete, one of North America's fastest-growing providers of fleet telematics and mobile workforce technology, announced today that it has acquired leading Dutch fleet telematics company ITmobile. Founded in 2000, ITmobile provides nearly 1,000 customers primarily in the Benelux region, with advanced fleet, asset and mobile worker technology to optimize productivity, safety and compliance. The acquisition will serve as a base for Fleet Complete's high-growth model in Europe, while also providing geographical expansion opportunities to both Fleet Complete and ITmobile's product suites. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

"We are excited about the transaction and look forward to working closely with our ITmobile team in the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxemburg to accelerate our collective growth and Fleet Complete's European expansion," said Tony Lourakis, CEO of Fleet Complete. "ITmobile has a long track record of providing its customers with superb technology and services. As part of Fleet Complete, ITmobile will build upon its distinguished performance. I am also delighted to welcome ITmobile's founders, Harald Treur and Klaas Collet, to Fleet Complete and am thrilled to partner with them."

ITmobile's advanced software systems provide reliable, factual data to its customers, enabling organizations to be more transparent and efficient. Combined, Fleet Complete and ITmobile have over 230 employees, 7,000 customers and more than 140,000 subscribers across 5 countries.

"The combination of Fleet Complete and ITmobile brings together two strong companies with exceptional product suites and technology capabilities," said Harald Treur, President and co-founder of ITmobile. "We share common values, similar cultures and together we will accomplish more than either company would on their own. Both Fleet Complete and ITmobile value taking amazing care of their customers, investing in innovation and being a great place to work. We are thrilled to be part of the Fleet Complete team and look forward to thriving together."

The transaction was funded through equity investment from the management teams at Fleet Complete and ITmobile as well as Madison Dearborn Partners (MDP), a leading private equity firm that purchased majority control of Fleet Complete in 2014. The acquisition of ITmobile marks the second acquisition for Fleet Complete since MDP's initial investment.
