Columbus, a Dynamics reseller based in Denmark, has sold its operations in the Netherlands to Abecon. The sale came as the two parties entered a three-year franchisee agreement. Under what was termed a global implementation alliance, Abecon was designed the “preferred partner and franchise taker for Columbus in the Benlux”. Despite the cheery language, this looks like the latest in a string of countries that Columbus, formerly known as Columbus IT Partner, has exited in the past three years.
