NZ Commerce Commission clears EROAD acquisition of Coretex 

November 19, 2021

In July, we shared the news that Coretex was acquired by EROAD.

Since then, we’ve been going through the process of getting approval from the NZ Commerce Commission to finalize the deal.

We are very proud to announce this approval has now been given, and that Coretex will become part of EROAD.

We’re super excited about this – but we understand you may have some questions, like what does this mean for me? For the moment, nothing changes – you can still expect the same great service and the same high-quality products.

As time moves forward, you’ll start to see some improvements – added functionality and services as our products move into the EROAD family. When this starts to happen, we’ll keep you updated. 

For further details please see the Market Release below, or on the NZX website here.
