Securing growth with a new delivery hub: Dataciders takes over Catenate Bulgaria

Dortmund/Sofia, February 6, 2024. With the acquisition of Catenate Bulgaria, a nearshoring center specializing in high-quality software development, Dataciders GmbH intends to further expand its future growth. With over 500 employees, Dataciders is one of the leading providers of data & analytics services in German-speaking countries.

Catenate Bulgaria will become an integral part of the newly established delivery hub at Dataciders. This hub enables the company to flexibly access highly qualified software developers when they are needed for critical customer projects. The integration of the nearshoring center plays an important role in the data & analytics specialist's growth plans, especially for large and long-running projects where nearshoring capabilities are often an important addition. The decision in favor of Catenate Bulgaria was an obvious one, as the company has been working with Dataciders subsidiary Catenate Munich since 2010 on numerous, mostly long-term projects for well-known clients and corporations.

Thomas Diezmann, one of the managing directors at Dataciders, emphasizes: "The many years of cooperation between the two companies from the Catenate Group have shown us how successful such a partnership can be. This step enables us to build up a complementary team in Bulgaria in order to be able to flexibly implement customer projects of any size. It is important for us to emphasize that our existing services cannot and should not be transferred. We are interested in complementing and completing our range of services."

Sofia as the location of the nearshoring center enables seamless collaboration and optimal communication with the German-speaking teams with a time difference of just one hour. The proven cooperation between the companies creates the ideal basis for meeting the increasing demand for different sourcing offers.

Nikola Mishev, Managing Director of Catenate Bulgaria: "Our aim is to gradually build up the team in Bulgaria so that it is precisely tailored to the requirements of our customers at Dataciders. This strategic cooperation strengthens our joint position to continue successfully implementing projects of all sizes for our customers."
