Rugged Mobile Computers: Group Mobile Ranked #32 In CRN's Fast Growth 100 List
Group Mobile, a leading online reseller of rugged mobile computers, recently announced that the company has been identified by CMP Media's CRN, which provides vital information for VARs and technology integrators, as a Fast-Growth 100 company. Group Mobile was given the 32nd spot on the list because of its rapid growth in the past few years. From 2004 to 2006, Group Mobile grew 167.11% in large part due to its informative ecommerce website, significant repeat customer business and knowledgeable sales and support staff.
CRN's Fast-Growth 100 identifies the 100 fastest growing solution providers across all specialty areas and business models. The profiles and data developed by CRN's editorial staff provide insights into which models and technology are proving to be the most successful.
"This is quite an honor. It proves that providing outstanding customer service translates into repeat business and word-of-mouth referrals to new customers; which translates into rapid business growth" said Richard Lawson, President of Group Mobile.
"As the channel's vital resource, CRN is solely focused on the Solution Provider community. This list, created by our editorial team, recognizes the Solution Providers that have worked tirelessly to support their customers. We salute them on their superior growth," said Robert DeMarzo, Editor of CRN.
"What makes this list so unique, and compelling, is that it represents such a large cross-section of the channel universe. What's more, this is a dynamic list. While 59 companies that were on CRN's 2006 Fast Growth 100 ranking made the grade again this year, sheer ingenuity and investment savvy propelled 41 new solution providers to growth rates worthy of the final cut."
