EXAH, a Salesforce partner with offices in Pretoria and Stellenbosch, has been acquired by NTT Data for an undisclosed sum.

Founded in 2014, EXAH has since its inception grown into one of Africa’s leading Salesforce consulting and implementation partners. Between 2021 and 2023, Salesforce named EXAH the Overall Implementation Partner of the Year for Sub-Saharan Africa for three consecutive years.

EXAH’s focus is on services and solutions in the domains of Marketing, Sales, FinTech, Customer Service, and Commerce. The firm has around 40 staff listed on LinkedIn.

Alan Turnley-Jones, CEO of NTT DATA in the Middle East and Africa, said: “EXAH’s strong reputation within the Salesforce partner ecosystem makes them an ideal addition to NTT Data. This acquisition allows us to provide greater value to our clients by combining EXAH’s expertise with our global capabilities and strategic partnerships. Together, we are committed to meeting the needs of our clients.”

With a track record of more than 3,500 Salesforce projects worldwide, NTT Data is one of the longest standing partners of Salesforce. The firm is a Summit Tier partner, which is the highest level in the Salesforce partner program.

“With EXAH, we deepen our Salesforce expertise across all stages – from integration to post-implementation support – ensuring local expertise is always on hand for our clients,” said Turnley-Jones.

The bolt-on acquisition also expands NTT Data’s presence in South Africa, a key market for the $30+ billion company. Its Johannesburg office serves as the regional headquarters of its business across Africa and the Middle East.

Meanwhile, for EXAH, the joining of forces with the global player will enable its team to grow its impact for clients, said Managing Director Tiaan le Roux. “Delivering exceptional customer value through innovation is our founding principle, and we’re proud to join NTT DATA’s global team to drive ever-growing value for our clients and partners across the African market and beyond.”
