American Communications Opens Asia Pacific Headquarters in Taiwan

SANTA BARBARA, Calif.—October 29, 2008 —American Communications, a leading provider of communication network hardware, repair, and infrastructure services, today announced their expansion of its international operations with the opening of an Asia Pacific headquarters.

The new office, located in Taipei, Taiwan, will lead American Communications’ sales efforts for the Asia Pacific countries, including China, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam, India, Pakistan, Korea, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and Papua New Guinea. As a result of its presence in this market, American Communications can provide responsive service in the delivery of new, surplus, and pre-owned communication network equipment, including Cisco, Nortel, Juniper, Adtran, Ciena, Ericsson, and over 20 more top United States manufacturers.

“American Communications has rapidly expanded the operations around the country and abroad over the past several years,” said Shawn Grennan, vice president of sales for American Communications. “The advantages of an Asia Pacific headquarters and the accessibility to an experienced workforce within the region allow American Communications to serve our Asia Pacific customer base with highly responsive, customized solutions for their network equipment needs.”

Stella King, managing director of Asia Pacific Sales at American Communications, will head the new office and direct all sales and logistics coordination. “This expansion in to the Asia Pacific market is ideal for supporting companies throughout the region in need of high quality equipment with savings of up to 90 percent off manufacturer list prices,” she explained. “Establishing a local presence in the Asia Pacific region sends a clear message that American Communications is dedicated to a global strategy and developing a strong presence in the Asian markets to meet customer’s requirements.”

This new headquarters is the latest of American Communications locations to open, following a domestic east coast office and Latin American headquarters in Buenos Aires, Argentina. American Communications also maintains field service offices in the Pacific Northwest, a state-of-the-art test and repair facility in Dallas, Texas, and a sales and technical center also located in Dallas, Texas.
