Ocuco expands into Continent

Ocuco Group has announced the acquisition of Aspe SII, a well-known French optical retail software firm, for an undisclosed sum.

The company said the move was in line with its strategic global expansion plans. Aspe SII creates software for opticians, dentists and audiologists, and has a key market niche in the private medical insurance sector in France.

'France is the third largest optical retail market in Europe. A company aiming at being the global leader in fields relating to optics has to be present in France. This acquisition allows Ocuco to be present on this market with our offering, while expanding the business portfolio of Aspe SII, an existing company with an invaluable level of expertise and know-how that can be deployed across the whole Group,' said Leo Mac Canna, Ocuco Group's chief executive officer.
