Cellular telephones have revolutionized the communications arena, redefining how we perceive voice communications. Traditionally, cellular phones remained out of the hands of most consumers due to their high cost. As a result, cell phone carriers have invested time and resources into finding ways to give the systems higher capacity and thus lower cost. Cell systems are benefiting from this research and starting to develop into large-scale consumer products.
Today, cellular phones are truly consumer electronics devices with over 59 million subscribers. The Nokia Bowl and Qualcomm Stadium are further evidence of the idea that cell phones are consumer electronics devices. Cell phones have ceased to be an exclusive status symbol of high-powered lawyers and are now in the hands of millions of consumers.
Garbles Cellular Phones, Inc. is taking advantage of an opportunity to become a highly distinguished and recognized leader in the cellular communications industry. It is the goal of our company to become established as the leading distributor of wireless communications services in the metro Niceburg area.
In order to achieve this goal, Garbles Cellular Phones' critical success factors will be to identify emerging trends and integrate them into our company operations, respond quickly to technology changes/be there early, provide high-quality services, invest time and money in marketing and advertising, expand into specialty markets, and stay ahead of the "technology curve."
The company was initially formed as a sole proprietorship by Mr. Seramed Garbles in the East Atlantic Island Archipelago (EAIA), and succeeded tremendously in that market. Capitalizing on the growing wireless communications industry and based on their success in EAIA the Garbles family decided to expand their company's operations to the U.S.A. and create a niche market for its products and accessories.
