PHS Group (PHS) acquired the records management and archiving business DataSafe Management Ltd and rebranded it as PHS DataSafe.

David Wicks of PHS Group has taken the role of Managing Director for DataSafe. He said, “I am very pleased to announce that PHS has acquired this well established and respected organisation. DataSafe’s service range complements our own well, and will serve to strengthen our core business areas, while adding valuable new ones.”

DataSafe has traded in the UK since 2002 and is a forerunner in the market of document storage and records management. Ian Burchett, General Manager of DataSafe comments: “DataSafe’s ethos is to provide customers with 100% service, taking the worry away from establishing and maintaining on-site document management. PHS specialises in such services for businesses, so the fit of the two companies is very good. I am pleased with the acquisition, which takes DataSafe, its customers and its employees to the next level of development.”
