JAPCC, a company that supplies quality and technical products to the Dutch and German market, joined the ICAPE Group to become ICAPE Netherlands. With JAPCCs’ 18 years of experience in the electronic industry, this merger is a great addition for ICAPE Group and its strategy of expansion on the European continent. After the Opening of business Units in Poland, in Sweden, the acquisition of BAE in Germany, the acquisition of IDELEC in France, ICAPE Group continues to gather strengths and talents.

In November 2021, Cyril Calvignac, CEO of ICAPE Group, and Melvin Brummelhuis, CEO of JAPCC united the forces of the companies toward an ambitious project, under the banner of ICAPE Netherlands. Mr Brummelhuis said that this partnership between ICAPE Group and JAPCC allows them to offer their customers a wider range of products, technologies, services, and suppliers. Partly due to the global footprint of ICAPE Group, with headquarters in France, America, and China, they can benefit in the current market of globalization and scaling up, but certainly be there for all customers, from small to large. This step also creates great growth opportunities for an expansion of their activities on the Dutch market and a further expansion on the German market. Together with CIPEM’s products, they also hope to be able to realize their strategy of “serving the customers’ needs of Technical Parts” even better.

ICAPE Group is also very optimistic about this situation as the company can start to work with a 100% business ready team and offices, as explained by Mr Cyril Calvignac. He further stated that ICAPE Group is established and efficient in Germany and they have been looking at the Netherlands for a few years now. It is a dynamic country with real industrial potential. Their policy has always been to offer the closest proximity to our customers while ensuring them the quality of service of an international group. They are extremely happy and confident to welcome JAPCC to their family. They studied how this team proceeds and they are very organized, professional, and dedicated to their customers. ICAPE Group will benefit from new projects and customers, reinforce its AVL, and ICAPE Netherlands can rely on their strong organization and all the services offered by their headquarters in Asia. It’s a win-win combination and they walk together in the same direction with high objectives.

For ICAPE Group, this new office and facility in Eibergen is also a strategic move for its logistic organization. Recently, the ICAPE Group benefited from an increase in its logistics capacities in Germany with a new base in Nuremberg and is working to optimize its transport and storage forces in France and Sweden. With an addition of a 340m² warehouse inside the offices of ICAPE Netherlands, ICAPE Group is now able to offer multiple options to its customers for reducing the lead times and better control the costs.
