SIA Aperitivos selects Kyndryl to deliver Backup-as-a-Service for its hybrid cloud environment

LISBON, September 4, 2025 — Kyndryl (NYSE: KD), a leading provider of mission-critical enterprise technology services, and SIA Aperitivos, a Portuguese company specializing in the production of potato chips and snack foods, have signed an agreement for the implementation of Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS). The service will provide security and resilience to SIA Aperitivos for its hybrid cloud environment.

Today, external threats such as malicious ransomware encryption pose an even greater threat to businesses than hardware failure or accidental data deletion.

“After implementing four layers of backups internally, we realized it was crucial to take it one step further – entrusting our data to a reliable partner. That’s when we chose Kyndryl,” said Luis Pedro Gonçalves, Head of IT Infrastructure and Cybersecurity at SIA Aperitivos. “The decision was based not only on the robustness of the service, but also on the confidence that, in the event of a disaster, we would have Kyndryl’s skilled and experienced team by our side with solid processes to help ensure and allow us to evolve toward a scalable resilience strategy that supports disaster recovery capabilities as our needs grow.” 

Advisory services led by Kyndryl Consult will help design and deploy SIA Aperitivos’ BaaS services, utilizing Kyndryl’s expertise in cloud and cyber resilience services. This service will minimize the impact of disruptions through capabilities that enable the automated recovery capabilities of critical business processes and data across environments.

“Kyndryl is excited to collaborate with SIA Aperitivos in designing, building and managing this solution, which will help ensure data protection in a secure environment, while balancing performance, security and cost,” said Paulo Coelho, Director and Partner at Kyndryl Portugal. “We are confident that our BaaS service will help SIA Aperitivos meet the demands of its business model and protect its data and operations in Portugal.”
