The European Commission has approved Tech Data's acquisition of data networking distributor Azlan. In a press release yesterday, the EC said "the operation does not raise any serious competition concerns on these product markets regardless of whether the market is national or European".
Tech Data is the biggest IT products distributor in Europe, while Azlan is probably the biggest distributor of data networking equipment. ®
