Through the past decade, Global Communications has focused on supplying RF two way radio communications and telecommunication solutions to the African continent and since its inception in 1977, the company has grown from a small two-way radio company into a distributor of land mobile radios, CCTV surveillance equipment as well as a integrator of network infrastructure with a large staff complement including highly qualified technical

and design engineers.

Today, Global is present in more than 40 African countries through dealers, integrators and distributors. This presence is a result of the company being the African leader for the supply of Kenwood Land Mobile Radio (LMR) equipment and an active

telecommunications equipment supplier in Africa.
