History

GCC has been in the Cyprus computer market since 1987, originally being the exclusive business partner for Cyprus of the Digital Equipment Corporation (Digital).

After five successful years in the Cyprus market, GCC was transformed in 1992 into Digital Equipment (Cyprus) Ltd, a fully owned subsidiary of Digital, with all GCC’s staff on board.

In 1994, Digital worldwide underwent a major restructuring and downsizing process. One outcome of its new market strategy was that GCC Computers took over Digital’s operations in Cyprus and was appointed as its Distributor Country Representative for the complete range of Digital products and services in Cyprus.

Since then, GCC has maintained its relationship with Digital’s successors, Compaq and HP, and has steadily enhanced its portfolio by adding new HW, SW and Middle-Ware Products.

Moreover, in cooperation with reputable international ISVs, GCC is now geared towards total business solutions at the enterprise level. We have been able to capitalise on our skills and experience, focusing on large turnkey business solutions in the following sectors:

• Public Sector
• Banking and Finance
• Telecommunications Service Providers
• Utilities
• Security and Law Enforcement (Biometrics)
