Disty Technologies (in Arabic: ديستي تكنولوجيز) is a Moroccan IT distribution company.[1][2] Founded in 2012 by Younès Elhimdy, the company was listed on the Casablanca Stock Exchange in July 2022.[3][4][5][6]

History

[edit]

Disty Technologies was founded in 2012 by Younès Elhimdy as a national importer and distributor of IT products. Between 2013 and 2017, the company expanded its distribution network through partnerships with major technology brands, including HP, Lenovo, Apple,[7][8] Asus,[9] Microsoft,[10][11] Hewlett Packard Enterprise, SanDisk[12] and Canon.[13][14] In 2018, Disty Technologies increased its share capital to 40.5 million Moroccan dirhams.

In January 2020, Disty Technologies entered into a partnership with Bitdefender.[15][16]

In May 2022, Disty Technologies signed after-sales service agreements with Asus and Canon, and established a dedicated subsidiary, S.L.A Technologies.[17][18]

In July 2022, Disty Technologies received approval from the Moroccan Capital Market Authority and was listed on the Casablanca Stock Exchange through a transaction combining a capital increase and a secondary share offering.[19][20]

In 2023, Disty Technologies announced distribution agreements wit LG Electronics and Honeywell.[21][22]

In 2023, Disty Technologies reported revenue of 540.8 million Moroccan dirhams, representing a 9% increase compared with the previous financial year.[23][24][25]

In March 2024, PME Croissance partially divested its stake in Disty Technologies, transferring 27,652 shares to AD Moroccan Equity Fund and 22,253 shares to another collective investment scheme. As a result of this transaction, PME Croissance fell below the regulatory ownership threshold of 10% of the company's share capital. The transaction also enabled AD Moroccan Equity Fund to exceed the 5% threshold, reaching a 5.47% stake in Disty Technologies.[26][27] A few months later, PME Croissance sold its remaining shares (49,906 shares) to Younès Elhimdy, resulting in its complete exit from the company's shareholding structure.[28][29]

In 2024, Disty Technologies reported revenue of 547.8 million Moroccan dirhams.[30][31]

In October 2025, Disty Technologies and Acer signed a partnership agreement for the distribution of Acer's products in Morocco.[32][33][34]
