The rollout of 5G and fiber optic networks gained solid momentum in 2022. That speed will only increase in the coming months and years. Circet, the leading telecom network service provider, and GRITT Projects are joining forces to respond to that exponential growth.

Bavo De Cock (CEO Circet Benelux): said, "As a pioneer in a fast growing market, we are continuously looking for capacity and diversification to expand our service portfolio. With the acquisition of GRITT Projects, we are ready to support our customers even better in the transition to 5G and the full end-to-end deployment of fiber networks. We already had that expertise in-house, but this expansion is crucial to fulfilling our customers' shared ambitions."

Herman De Keukeleire (CEO GRITT Projects): ”"GRITT Projects is delighted to become part of Circet Benelux. The current market position of GRITT Projects is 100% compatible with the ambitions of Circet. At both companies we find the same DNA of sustainable entrepreneurship and long-term vision. We are convinced that this fusion will lead to a reinforcement of the existing organization and which will allow us to better support existing and new growth opportunities in the Benelux market. This transaction offers good
future perspectives for all stakeholders of GRITT Projects."

Circet Benelux is looking forward to welcoming the 180 employees of GRITT Projects and working together to design and deploy the telecom networks of the future.
