Telecoms Franchise Opportunities

Globalink

Ian Fenwick, founder and Chief Executive of the Globalink group of companies has over the years won great acclaim for his sales skills, indeed, his sales awards litter the walls of Globalink's meeting room. When he turned his attention to the telecoms market in the mid 1990's success was inevitable.

Globalink was formed in 1998 and the combination of Ian's sales skills and Globalinks comprehensive portfolio of products and services has seen the company enjoy phenomenal growth since its creation. It is thanks to this success that Globalink is now able to command high volume, low cost LCR agreements with major carriers and networks thus ensuring that the company will continue to deliver a highly competitive pricing structure and first class service to its customers.

In just one year Globalink has become one of the fastest growing re-sellers of video conferencing equipment in the UK, by rebranding and presenting this as visual communication, and with increasing awareness and availability of broadband and IP, this market alone is predicted to grow by 50% in the next twelve months.

In April 2004 Globalink launched its franchise opportunity and whilst the companies core principles have remained the same, the company has already enjoyed dramatic expansion throughout the country. Adding to this enjoyment with the companies recognitions with Globalinks accreditation as a Provisional Member of the British Franchise Association.
