NorthC completes acquisition of six data centers from Colt Technology Services

NorthC announces the completion of its acquisition of six data centers from Colt Technology Services. As of 1 September 2025, NorthC takes over operations at the sites located in Frankfurt, Berlin, Hamburg, Munich and Düsseldorf in Germany, and Amsterdam in The Netherlands.

This acquisition significantly strengthens NorthC’s presence in both the Benelux and DACH regions, expanding its platform with over 25 megawatts of additional capacity. The acquisition provides a true coverage of the German market, with five new sites added to the existing two.  It also provides additional capacity in Amsterdam, a key hub in NorthC’s network of regional data centers.

NorthC also plans to expand its connectivity ecosystem to address the growing needs of low-latency solutions for AI enabled data centers.

Building a strong foundation

NorthC has a proven track record in delivering reliable and secure colocation services, with a focus on regional presence, scalable and sustainable infrastructure and outstanding technical expertise with a personal approach.

Following the transition of control on 1 September, the acquired sites will be integrated into the NorthC platform and will be aligned with NorthC’s operational, quality and service standards. Customers will benefit from seamless access to NorthC’s digital services, such as the MyNorthC self-service portal.

NorthC will further invest in the new sites to increase available capacity, efficiency and sustainability across the new sites, ensuring customers will benefit from the same high standards of service and quality NorthC offers at all their data centers.

This acquisition further increases NorthC’s capabilities to serve customers in multiple regions in the Benelux and DACH and establishes nationwide coverage in Germany. It also adds significant available capacity in Amsterdam, one of NorthC’s core markets.

Alexandra Schless, CEO of NorthC Group, stated:

Today marks a major milestone in NorthC’s mission to build the premier regional data center platform in Northwestern Europe. The integration of these six strategic sites accelerates our expansion, particularly in Germany, enabling us to support customers across all major metropolitan regions with scalable, secure, and sustainable digital infrastructure.”

Supporting customers locally and across borders

The acquired data centers are located in regions with strong connectivity and growing digital infrastructure needs. With this expansion, NorthC is in an even stronger position to support organisations with operations across national borders. Examples are international enterprises, cloud and IT providers, and public institutions.

As part of the transaction, Colt Technology Services will remain a long-term customer in the acquired facilities. This ensures continuity of service and reinforces the collaboration between the two companies.

Schless:
“We are committed to provide a seamless transition for all customers. In addition, we aim to bring added value through our expert teams in both the technical as well as the customer service areas.”
