Like Sharp, Apsia puts the customer at the heart of its priorities which aligns with our plans to consistently meet the changing needs of our customers and future customers across Europe.”

Joining Sharp will enhance our offering to meet the evolving needs of our customers and cloud transformation. We are looking forward to supporting an even wider range of customers with new challenges, such as preparing for the arrival of AI in management applications.”
Apsia will bring expanded technical expertise into Sharp and strengthen its role as a trusted partner for the implementation of IT for small, medium and larger companies and organisations. Apsia will continue to operate under its own brand in the French market.
Sharp Europe serves customers in both the private and public sectors, as well as Education and Government, with a portfolio that includes printers, other advanced technologies, and collaboration platforms, on top of its IT Services offering.
