BayWa r.e. has acquired Beacon Solar, the solar distribution division of the roofing distributor Beacon. Beacon Solar will be integrated into BayWa r.e. Solar Systems, the company’s U.S. solar distribution arm. Of particular relevance is that the acquisition increases BayWa r.e. warehouses from six to 16, making delivery to key solar markets faster. It will also mean expanded product offerings and cross-selling of solar and roofing equipment.
