Our Story

The story of TechPoint: A legacy of excellence 

TechPoint’s journey began in 2002 when Dan and Vince Croft established Vanilla Electronics from a home office in Norwich. What started as a small venture has since evolved into a multi-site, multi-capability group. 

Over the years, we’ve expanded through both organic growth and strategic acquisitions. Our first acquisition in early 2021 marked the beginning of an exciting chapter, and since then, we’ve welcomed four more businesses into our group, some with histories spanning nearly 50 years. In 2022, we rebranded and introduced the TechPoint name to the world, embodying our evolution into a forward-thinking, dynamic organisation. 

With strategically positioned Centres of Excellence across the UK, we provide comprehensive solutions tailored to our clients’ needs, no matter the complexity or scale. Our reputation is built on delivering customer-centric, innovative services for the most demanding applications, ensuring we remain at the forefront of the industry.
