About

Gordon R Brown established the company in 1987 although it existed prior to that under a different name. The original remit of the company was to supply local industry with an alternative to British Telecom for the supply and installation of telephone systems, services and ancillary equipment. A major part of the work of the company is still directed towards border industry due to the development of strong customer relations, but the geographic range of the business now being conducted now covers the central Scottish belt and locations as far south as London.

The overall policy of the company is to provide  customers with the highest possible level of service. The aim is for all customers to be completely satisfied with the equipment purchased, the quality of installation, the training provided and the maintenance service offered. To fulfil this, the company operates an ongoing staff training and development programme and has developed unique customer training and maintenance procedures.

With the support of the Scottish Borders, G B Telecom has been awarded “Investor in People” recognition. The purpose of the award is to demonstrate the high quality of the GBT management and staff.

Continued expansion has meant a move to new and larger premises at Galamoor House. These have been adapted to suit the present needs of the company but also have the potential to cater for further developments.

Combined with the technical and marketing back up power of Alcatel Telecom, GBT intends maintaining its present rate of growth and become a major part of the Scottish telecommunications service industry
