Global Brands for Trading Company
Global Brands was established in February 1997. It spearheads the strategic and systematic integration of technology, enabling organizations to succeed in their business objectives. Its ever-advancing solutions gear clients with the tools and systems to increase their productivity using secure, simplified, and reliable technology.
During its inception, the original business concept revolved around delivering premier globally branded hardware and software to Egypt’s corporate market. This endeavor is hence, encompassed in the name “Global Brands” itself. To further the vision, we make these high-quality solutions accessible by packaging them with a reasonable cost and reliable local support.
The innovative directorship of Global Brands came together in recognition of Egypt’s dearth in the local representation of internationally renewed hardware and software products. Our founders have an immense background in technology and had worked with multinational brands such as Procter & Gamble and IBM. They envisioned Global Brands as a solution that will reform the landscape of Egypt’s digital transformation by delivering global tech brands to the enterprise level. The high-quality products accompanied by world-class service capabilities rendered by a dedicated and experienced team gave the thriving company a competitive edge.
The company was initially appointed an Authorized Reseller & Service Provider by Compaq and a Microsoft Certified Solution Provider, and Microsoft Certified Support Centre. Both relationships flourished, resulting in rapid growth with a sales revenue of L.E. 20 million and a net profit of L.E. 1.7 million in the third year of its trading. To offer a comprehensive portfolio of products to respond to the needs of a sophisticated customer base, Global Brands established business partnerships and reseller arrangements with other leading vendors of complementary products. These included Lexmark, Cisco Systems, Systimax Solutions, 3Com, Sybari, Legato, and McAfee.
