The Klarius Group has concluded an agreement with CD Group, to purchase its Quinton Hazell Ireland operation.

QH Ireland will continue to operate as a stand-alone entity within the CD Group of companies, distributing QH and Klarius branded products to the Irish market. Customers can continue to deal with the people that they always have done at QH in Dublin and place orders through the normal channels, including the QH Ireland online ordering portal at www.qhl.ie .

Terry Knox Component Distributors (CD) Group Director, comments ‘This deal not only expands our group operations and presence in Ireland but allows us to share our distribution expertise and infrastructure with our new colleagues at QH Ireland. We are excited by the addition of the QH business to the group as the acquisition fits well with our plans for continued growth on the island.’

There is a great affinity between QH and CD since Stuart Knox, Terry’s grandfather, worked with Sir Quinton Hazell in the 1960s and helped him to establish QH in Ireland.
