Diversified Communications acquires Thailand’s Kavin Intertrade

News this week: Diversified Communications has announced the acquisition of Bangkok-based exhibition organiser Kavin Intertrade Co., Ltd. for an undisclosed amount. After the acquisition, Diversified will maintain a team of 20 employees in Thailand.

The acquisition of Kavin will add a total of seven trade and consumer events to Diversified’s portfolio – including the Thai Franchise & SME Expo (FSE), Thailand Franchise & Business Opportunities (TFBO), Thailand Retail, Food & Hospitality Services (TRAFS).


Daniel Hildreth, chairman of Diversified’s Board of Directors, remarked, “It is exciting to kick off the New Year with an acquisition that brings us to a new region and even more impressive when we consider the ten product launches planned for 2014 and the five acquisitions we closed in 2013. This is all part of a long-term growth strategy, now being finessed and driven by Ted Wirth, Diversified’s president and CEO.”
