Viscount Ships to
Jamaica
Viscount Systems Inc. today announced the
company has agreed to a blanket distribution order with Technology Plus Co. Ltd.
of Kingston, Jamaica and has shipped an initial stocking order. Technology Plus
is the leading security and telecommunications contractor in Jamaica.
"Jamaica is another new market for
Viscount," commented Stephen Pineau, President and CEO of Viscount.
"Technology Plus is an excellent company and we look forward to working
with them to make Viscount a major factor in the Jamaican security market. As we
continue to increase our MESH marketing we are finding new opportunities for
both MESH and our existing products. Security is increasingly an international
concern and we are finding our new products are extremely competitive in the
global marketplace."
Joseph Francis of Technology Plus noted,
"MESH will be an excellent product for government applications and
airports. We also see Emerphone as a winner since most Emergency intercoms in
Jamaica are direct wired older versions. We have a strong presence in the
multi-residential market that will allow us to grow with both new and existing
Viscount products."
