ZAGREB, Croatia, June 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Iron Mountain
Incorporated (NYSE: IRM)®, the global leader in storage and
information management services, today announced it has entered the
Croatian market with the acquisition of Arhiv Trezor, a provider of
records management, secure destruction and secure transportation.
The acquisition of Arhiv Trezor, based in Zagreb, will give Iron Mountain its first
facility in country.
"The acquisition of Arhiv Trezor is an important step in our
efforts to grow our presence within Southeastern Europe," said Andras Szakonyi, senior vice president, Northern
and Eastern Europe and
India, Iron Mountain. "The
opportunity to enter the market by acquiring a company with such a
solid reputation and important customer base made Arhiv Trezor an
attractive option for Iron Mountain. And, since Croatia is a member of the European Union, its
economic and cultural connections to other Central and Southeastern
European markets are very strong, allowing us the opportunity to
leverage our global scale to help local, regional and multinational
customers with their records and information management
needs. We welcome Arhiv Trezor's customers and team members
to Iron Mountain, and look forward to building on our reputation as
a trusted partner and innovator in our industry."
Founded in 2002, Arhiv Trezor is the recognized country leader
in records management and storage, digitization, secure information
destruction, and secure transportation. The company is also the
first private archive in Croatia
to receive the Accreditation of the Croatian State Archives, and
achieved ISO 9001: 2015 Certification for records and business
documentation archiving in Europe.
"Acquiring a known market leader like Arhiv Trezor fits our
strategy of seeking established local providers that share our
commitment to service delivery, trust and security in markets with
strong growth trends in information management outsourcing," said
Ernest Cloutier, executive vice
president and general manager, International for Iron Mountain.
"With the recent implementation of General Data Protection
Regulation (GDPR) across the European Union, customers increasingly
need a partner like Iron Mountain to support them in developing
their processes to comply with the regulation's strict requirements
for data privacy and protection. This entry into the Croatian
market enables us to capitalize on the growing records and
information management opportunity and support existing and new
customers with our scale and diverse solutions to meet these kinds
of increasingly complex information management challenges."
