Full Ownership of JJ-LAPP: LAPP Group Unifies Southeast Asia Operations

Published

on

LAPP’s largest-ever acquisition pairs global engineering with regional agility to drive Southeast Asia’s next wave of connectivity.

SINGAPORE, Aug. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LAPP Group, a global leader in cable and connection technology, has completed its acquisition of JJ-LAPP. With this move, the German family-owned company unifies its operations across Southeast Asia under the singular LAPP brand identity.

Marking the largest acquisition in LAPP’s history, this milestone combines German engineering quality and innovation with JJ-LAPP’s established local footprint and entrepreneurial spirit to deliver state-of-the-art connectivity solutions across Southeast Asia.

The transaction represents the conclusion of an equal-share joint venture originally founded in 2004 with Jebsen & Jessen Group.  Over the past two decades, the partnership successfully grew JJ-LAPP from a small cable distributor into a premier regional connectivity solutions provider.

Approximately 350 team members will be fully integrated into LAPP’s global structure. They are joining a team of more than 5,700 colleagues around the globe with a strong local footprint throughout Asia. LAPP is dedicated to preserving JJ-LAPP’s deep local market knowledge while enhancing service capabilities for customers across Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia.

Richard Lee, Chairman and CEO of Asia Pacific for LAPP Group, said: “Southeast Asia’s market diversity is its greatest strength, but beneath every thriving sector lies a common denominator: the critical need for advanced cables and connection technology.”

“Whether it’s accelerating the rapid expansion of regional data centers, automating factories, or building smarter infrastructure, reliable connectivity is non-negotiable. LAPP is proud to be at the heart of this evolution, delivering the German-engineered reliability needed to power the region’s next wave of sustainable growth.”

“Our customers are at the heart of all that we do. With this acquisition, we reinforce our commitment to the region and strengthen our support for Southeast Asian businesses with direct access to LAPP’s global supply chain and engineering expertise.”

The acquisition comes at a time when Southeast Asia is seeing significant investment in AI-driven data centers, automated manufacturing facilities, and renewable energy infrastructure. These developments are creating growing demand for specialized cable and connection solutions that can support high-performance applications while withstanding the region’s challenging tropical environments.

Asia-Pacific is already LAPP’s fastest growing region with a strong double-digit growth rate in fiscal year 2025. To drive this growth, LAPP will leverage Indonesia as a core regional manufacturing hub to shorten lead times, alongside Vietnam as a key commercial hub.

Customers across high-growth industries, including industrial automation, data centers, and renewable energy, will continue to experience seamless business continuity while benefiting from faster response times and deeper regional engineering support.

TMGM and Chelsea Football Club Extend Partnership into Fourth Year, Expanding into the Middle East

Published

on

By

SYDNEY, Sept. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — TMGM and Chelsea Football Club today announced the extension of their partnership into a fourth year, with the collaboration expanding beyond Asia-Pacific into the Middle East.

Since 2023, TMGM has served as Chelsea FC’s Official Online Forex and CFD Trading Partner in Asia-Pacific. The extension advances a partnership spanning matchday visibility, original content and fan engagement.

Three Years of Shared Momentum

In 2026, the partnership reached a milestone when TMGM branding appeared on the back of Chelsea men’s match shirts during the FA Cup – a first in the club’s history. TMGM also joined Chelsea FC’s 2026 Asia-Pacific Pre-Season Tour as an Official Partner, with open training, pitch-side access and post-match tunnel experiences. The tour included a visit by Chelsea players Cole Palmer and João Pedro to TMGM’s Sydney headquarters.

Earlier in 2026, TMGM presented The Famous CFC in Bangkok, where hundreds of supporters attended a live match screening and an exclusive appearance by former Chelsea captain John Terry.

These milestones formed part of a wider programme of premium home-match hospitality, behind-the-scenes visits at Cobham and player-led content under TMGM’s “Trade like a lion” campaign.

A Broader Platform for Year Four

In year four, TMGM’s expanded regional rights will support brand visibility at Chelsea home fixtures, original content featuring players and legends, regional digital campaigns and a China-focused performance series. The programme will also continue through The Famous CFC in selected markets and offer TMGM clients further hospitality and behind-the-scenes access across Chelsea’s matchday, stadium and training environments.

“Over three years, our relationship with Chelsea FC has evolved from regional activations to high-profile moments, including visibility on the club’s FA Cup shirts and its Asia-Pacific tour,” said TMGM. “Entering our fourth year and extending into the Middle East creates opportunities to connect with more audiences through experiences that reflect the ambition of both organisations.”

Chelsea Football Club said: “TMGM has focused on bringing its clients and our supporters closer to the club through digital-first content and in-person events across Asia-Pacific to great effect. We are pleased to extend the partnership into a fourth year and look forward to building on its momentum across the region and also the Middle East.”

Ridgeway Pharmacy Statement Regarding Website Security Incident Involving Third-Party Vendor

Published

on

By

VICTOR, Mont., Sept. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Ridgeway Pharmacy, Ltd. (“Ridgeway”) is providing notice of an incident involving its pharmacy website, which was developed by a third-party vendor. Ridgeway identified operational issues on the website and promptly began an investigation with the assistance of external cybersecurity and forensic specialists. That investigation determined that a vulnerability in the vendor-supported website allowed an unknown third party to access the site using elevated privileges, and that certain information may have been accessible as a result. On August 21, 2026, Ridgeway determined that the information potentially involved may have included name, date of birth, address, prescription information, health information, insurance information, and, for a portion of the individuals, payment card information. Importantly, at no time did this incident involve Ridgeway’s internal systems.

Ridgeway takes the privacy and security of information seriously and holds the third parties that support its services to that same standard. Upon learning of this matter, Ridgeway secured and remediated the affected website, stood up a new platform, further restricted access, strengthened monitoring, implemented additional protections against unauthorized activity, and reported the incident to federal law enforcement.

Written notice has been mailed to individuals whose information may have been involved, and out of an abundance of caution Ridgeway is offering complimentary identity protection services through TransUnion, a leading identity protection provider. As a general precaution, individuals are encouraged to review their account statements, health plan explanations of benefits, and credit reports for any unfamiliar activity, to enroll in the complimentary services described in their notification letter, and to report any unusual activity to their financial institution.

Individuals with questions may call Ridgeway’s dedicated toll-free assistance line at 1-833-516-7133, available 8am – 8pm (ET).
