IdentiSys acquires Photo I.D. Systems & Supplies

Andrew Hudson   ||   Jun 02, 2014  ||   

IdentiSys sales and service integrator of identification, card issuance, customer line management and access control security systems, has announced the acquisition of Cincinnati, Ohio based ID reseller Photo I.D. Systems & Supplies, Inc.

Photo I.D. Systems and Supplies marks IndentiSys’ eleventh acquisition to date and displays the company’s intent to expand its nationwide presence. Photo I.D. Systems & Supplies has been selling identification security solutions to customers throughout North America – operating primarily in Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky – since 1987, with experience in corporate, government, financial, healthcare, education and security markets.

“IdentiSys strives to always expand our local sales and service coverage in the U.S. and continues to investigate growth opportunities, says Michael R. Shields, founder and CEO of IdentiSys. “The opportunity to add Photo I.D. Systems and their customer base to our company works well with our strategy of providing in-depth sales and service throughout our coverage area.”

The acquisition will leverage personnel from both companies under the leadership of IdentiSys.

“We welcome the addition of Elaine Margolis, the president and founder of Photo I.D. Systems, to our sales organization,” says Debra R. Ferril, president and COO of IdentiSys. “Together, we look forward to providing our customers with the IdentiSys sales and service experience and we are happy to be bringing our expanded product portfolio and on-site services to the existing Photo I.D. Systems customer base.”
