TGI Technologies Ltd.
The Foundation:
TGI Technologies Ltd. is a privately owned Canadian Corporation
that was formed in June 1989 as the technical arm of the
Tradeglobe Group of Companies. TGI develops and manufactures
communications software and hardware to provide a complete range
of integrated enhanced messaging services to corporate endusers
over UNIX and PC Networks (LANs and WANs).
Tradeglobe was formed in 1982 and is a privately owned
international trading company based in Vancouver, B.C., Canada.
Tradeglobe was created in response to the business opportunities
presented when China opened its markets during the early 1980s.
Tradeglobe's founding partners, Mr. Thompson Chu and Mr John
McDermott, can be described as pioneers who recognized the
tremendous potential for growth in China prior to forming
Tradeglobe. Mr Chu has established and managed his own China
trading company and Mr McDermott had successfully directed one of
the first Western high-tech companies into China.
Mr Chu and Mr McDermott bring together complementary skills and
over 55 years of business and marketing experience. Mr Chu has
extensive knowledge of China, its culture, politics and business
practices while Mr McDermott has held senior management positions
in industry leading telecommunications companies. Tradeglobe
reflects individual strengths and has matured to be a complete
but very versatile marketing organization. Tradeglobe's
organizational structure is very responsive to markets and it has
established a network of offices and distributors worldwide to
manage the
trade of commodities, consume products and highly sophisticated
telecommunications equipment.
Tradeglobe's early focus concentrated on trade with the Far East
but has expanded to include manufacturing of a number of product
lines. The move to diversify into manufacturing products has
been successful and has become an integral component of
Tradeglobe's business. Tradeglobe employs approximately 100
people with offices in Vancouver, Los Angeles, Hong Kong,
Beijing, Taipei and Seoul, Korea. The Tradeglobe Group of
Companies contributed in excess of $50 million in sales in 1993.
TGI was formed as part of Tradeglobe's diversification program
with a mandate to enter the rapidly growing Information
Technology sector. The formation of TGI was a natural
progression due to management's telecommunications expertise and
Tradeglobe's continued representation of a number of large
companies in China. TGI currently has a head office in Vancouver
and a branch office in Louisiana.
