The company’s strategy aims to increase the ratio of data center services in the total turnover to some 25 percent in the coming five years. For 2008, Omnilogic is estimating some $180 million (€130 mln).
According to the company’s Managing Director, Gabriel Marin, significant companies tend to outsource their IT segment. “On the other hand, since profit margins are increasingly lower in distribution, following the trend of mature markets, it is difficult to survive without additional [operations] in the services field,” Marin added.
The company has already invested some €8 million in a data center, located in Otopeni, north of Bucharest, for which it signed a deal with Tiriac Holding, with operations in the auto and real estate segments.
The investment in a second such center, also located in Otopeni, could amount to €6-7 million.
