Medina, Ohio-based GHI Internet Services, a leading interactive media, internet marketing and ASP software firm and the Internet division to parent company Griffith Holdings, Inc., recently signed an International Distribution and Outsourcing Partnership through GHI International with Real Technologies Group of Kampala, Uganda.

“Inherent to GHI International’s founding” said Frank Griffith, Griffith Holdings, Inc. Founder and Chairman, “is our belief that goods, services, and money move quicker around the globe due to the internet thus requiring the creation of new networks within and between companies to improve economic growth while maintaining local communities.” “Consequently,” said Frank, “GHI Internet Services has purposed to remarket more than 70 web-based products and services through a newly formed sister company, GHI International.”

Mr. Griffith further stated, “GHI International and Real Technologies Group’ initial focus will be on capturing the local Kampala marketplace with search engine optimization and email marketing services. Longer term plans include Real Technologies Group playing a leading role in helping GHI International identify, develop, and service Indirect Channel Partnerships throughout the African continent from Kenya, Tanzania, and the Sudan, to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda and Burundi.”

“GHI is very excited about this new relationship,” said Jeff Reusser, GHI President and CFO, “because we believe Real Technologies Group’ experienced staff, client base, and complimentary services portfolio will strengthen our existing work in West Africa through PC Vision, GHI International’s Operating Partner.”
Pete Kever, VP of Client Services and Managing Director of GHI International also believes, “The team at Real Technologies Group is an outstanding group of web design and development professionals." "Their track record for building quality brands online and our shared vision for the future of internet marketing make for a good relationship. We’re looking forward to working with them on a new email marketing project with one of the largest banks in East Africa, and are delighted to welcome them to the growing GHI family of domestic and international partners."
