EDMONTON, March 28, 2024 – Sunco Communication and Installation, a leading Canadian independent business telecom and managed IT systems integrator, is pleased to announce the acquisition of the Canadian on-premise PBX business of Zayo, a leading global provider of fiber network infrastructure.
“This is an important and historic step in our company’s commitment to growing our Canadian PBX business,” says Sunco CEO, Mike Schoenberger. “We are deeply rooted in our identity as a Canadian-based company. We understand the unique needs and aspirations of our clients, and our growth is intricately linked to fostering and advancing the telecommunications landscape in Canada. Sunco is not just a service provider; we are a catalyst for Canadian business success which will now be multiplied with the acquisition of Zayo’s Canadian on-premise PBX business.”
The acquisition expands Sunco’s boots-on-the-ground presence to Ontario and Quebec which will not only ensure continued top-class service to Zayo’s current customers, but also enhance service to existing and future Sunco customers in central and eastern Canada, adds Mr. Schoenberger.
“With over two decades of experience, we have consistently evolved to meet the ever-changing demands of the telecommunications and IT landscape,” he says. “Our growth is not just numerical but is also reflected in the continuous enhancement of our services and products and the value we bring to our clients.”
“The acquisition also reinforces Sunco’s unwavering commitment to providing unparalleled service and cutting-edge products as Mitel’s top Canadian partner,” says Mr. Schoenberger.
“Our partnership with Mitel is a testament to Sunco’s dedication to delivering top-tier solutions, setting industry standards and ensuring our clients receive the best telecommunications experience available,” he adds.
“I am excited that our Platinum Partner Sunco has been selected to acquire Zayo’s Canadian business. It is a real boost for our already strong partnership,” says Tom Lang VP of Mitel Canada. “It will undoubtedly benefit existing and future customers whose needs in a rapidly changing technology-based communications world will demand the high level of product knowledge and personal service that Sunco provides. We look forward to working closely with Sunco to continue delivering world class communications solutions to our Canadian customers.”
While Sunco’s partnership with Zayo was already well established, the acquisition significantly deepens their combined strengths in Canada.
“Sunco’s acquisition of Zayo’s on-premise PBX Canadian business, including the seamless integration of acquired Zayo staff into Sunco’s operations, ensures a smooth transition for Zayo’s existing Canadian on-premise PBX customers,” states Michael McKerley, Senior Vice President of Managed Services at Zayo.
“We are proud of our dedication to serving our Canadian on-premise PBX customers for many years. We are confident Sunco will be a fantastic service provider to these customers and a great employer for the team members who will now be part of the Sunco family.”
Mr. Schoenberger says, “Sunco distinguishes itself through a unique approach, offering more than just services.”
“We provide an employee-level commitment and a collaborative partnership with every client” he says. “Our team, driven by over 20 years of industry expertise, ensures that clients receive the personalized attention and innovative solutions they deserve.”
“The company’s tagline – We make business communications easier for our clients by being Your Trusted Systems Integrator – embodies the essence of Sunco’s commitment to reliability, trustworthiness and excellence,” adds Mr. Schoenberger.
“We invite Canadian businesses to explore the world of advanced telecommunications and managed IT solutions with Sunco, where trust and innovation converge,” he says.
