Company History
Origin Storage through the last decade
In the beginning
Origin Storage Ltd is a company born from the brand name Origin Storage Solutions, which covers the supply of Hard Drive Solutions to major computer manufacturers. Origin Storage Solutions had been successfully selling for five years previous to the brand being developed into an individual business.
During 2001 as the business expanded, the company was incorporated as Origin Storage Limited. A handpicked team was chosen to bring experience in component knowledge, compatibility, product sourcing and assembly. Since our humble beginnings Origin has continued to expand into the storage arena, partnering with unique manufactures and offering a wide range of services and solutions.
Origin and Amacom
In January 2006 Origin announced that it had acquired the rights and assets of Amacom Technologies in a deal signed following Amacom's voluntary liquidation in late 2005. The acquisition gave Origin the rights to manufacture and distribute Amacom's award winning range of portable data storage solutions including the Flip2disk, IODisk and EZ2Disk.
This deal allowed Origin to expand and grow in to new areas such as mail order, retail and corporate markets. The Amacom brand has enabled the company to reach a new, large and loyal customer base and build on its existing relationships with OEM and distribution.
What we're doing now
Due to the overwhelming success of Origin Storage Ltd the company moved to larger premises in late 2006. Expansion plans have continued with the opening of a Satellite office in the Netherlands during 2007. With Increasing business Origin introduced a major upgrade to the business in the way of a state of the art Order & Stock Management system during 2008.
In 2009, the company's 8th trading year, Origin became firmly established as one of Europe's leading manufacturers for tier 1 matched hard drive solutions. With additions to the product portfolio such as the DataLocker PIN encrypted hard drive, Origin began to establish a new line of encryption products for the data security market.
