CWG Plc Celebrates 25 Years Anniversary in Lagos in Grand Style!

CWG Plc (Formerly known as Computer Warehouse Group plc) has marked the 25th year of its creation in the past week, with a number of activities carried out to mark the milestone.

And some interview sessions with key staff members:

CWG Plc is a leading provider of Information Technology solutions across West, Central and Eastern Africa with annual revenue of $120 million and staff strength of over 650.

Recall that CWG Plc commenced operations in September 1992 as Computer Warehouse Limited with only Four (4) staff members to undertake hardware projects. Five (5) years later, DCC Networks, the communications arm of the group was established to provide VSAT, Metropolitan, Wide Area and Local area networks to corporate organisations. In 1999, based on the existing demands in the area of software solutions, system and training, ExpertEdge Software was acquired as the company’s third arm.

In pursuit of its Pan-African Vision, CWG Plc has established its regional offices in the West, East and Central Africa. CWG Ghana limited (2003), CWG Uganda Limited (2010) and CWG Cameroon Limited (2012) to handle the business interest of these regions. On the 6th of March, 2012, CWG Plc merged with its three (3) subsidiaries; CWL Systems, ExpertEdge Software and DCC Networks, thereby leaving CWG Plc as the only surviving entity.

At inception, CWG was essentially an IT infrastructure sales firm. Thereafter, the group has evolved into an IT Powerhouse with a focus on enabling businesses through strategic partnerships with world-class partners.

Congratulations CWG Plc!
