Welch Systems, Inc. Announces Merger with Data Business Equipment, Inc.

PEORIA, Ill., Jan. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Jeff Martin, President/Owner, Welch Systems, Inc., recently announced the merger of his company with Data Business Equipment, headquartered in Des Moines, IA. In doing so, Martin stated that this will not affect Welch's leadership, employees, offerings, or identity.

"As I announce my retirement, I can confidently say that the customers and employees of Welch Systems, Inc. and therefore its continued success, is in the best possible hands," stated Martin. "Two strong organizations are now being led by Toby Geiger of Data Business Equipment. I know Toby will oversee both existing leadership teams to even higher levels of customer service and continue to provide world class solutions."

This merger came about due to the planned retirement of Martin.

"Growing is important to future opportunities and stability as a company. Bigger and stronger, while not losing focus on customer service is our goal moving forward," stated Toby Geiger, President/Owner, Data Business Equipment.
