We aim to realise synergies through Invicta’s procurement capabilities, sourcing inventory for Imex’s clients on a more cost effective basis, and providing access to a broader range of products. In addition, Imex has product ranges which can be cross-pollenated into Invicta’s existing operations. Effective date The effective date of the Acquisition was 1 July 2023. Categorisation of the Acquisition The acquisition of Imex does not constitute a categorised transaction in terms of the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited and accordingly this information is disclosed on a voluntary basis.
