CWG AT A GLANCE

We commenced operations in Nigeria on September 26th, 1992, as Computer Warehouse Limited principally catering to Computer hardware projects. Few years later, DCC Networks was established as the Communication arm; to provide VSAT, Metropolitan, Wide Area and Local Area Networks to Corporate Organizations. In order to concentrate on the demands emerging in the area of Software systems, training and solutions; Expert Edge Software was acquired in 1999.

Further expansion led to the establishment of a branch in Ghana in 2003; with the aim to cater for the needs of the broader West African region. In 2005, Computer Warehouse Group was incorporated to co-ordinate and monitor the activities of the three subsidiaries companies (CWL, DCC and Expert Edge) thus freeing the Group Company to act as the Head Office providing shared resources function for the Subsidiaries. This enabled the organization to coordinate affairs from a central point to make them generally more efficient and customer focused.

In February 2008 and with many giant strides already, Computer Warehouse Group attracted the interest of Abraaj Group, a leading Private Equity firm, who then invested in the company.
In pursuit of its Pan-African Vision, CWG expanded its base of operations and established other regional offices in East and Central Africa; CWG Uganda Limited (2010) and CWG Cameroon Limited (2012) respectively to handle the business interest arising from these regions. By March 2012, these Subsidiaries were merged into Computer Warehouse Group and ceased to exist as separate entities, rather as divisions.

On the 15th of November 2013, Computer Warehouse Group listed its shares on the Nigerian Stock Exchange as it ceased to be a Private Limited Company and became listed as a Public Company. This listing boosted the market Capitalization of the NSE by about N14 billion naira, making Computer Warehouse Group PLC the highest capitalized security in the ICT sector. Computer Warehouse Group Plc's listing also marked the first listing on the exchange after the launch of the X-Gen trading engine; the same engine used on the NASDAQ.

As we progressed, the company consistently developed and distributed technology solutions that predominantly addressed the needs of businesses; thus enabling the growth of Conglomerates and SME's. Our commitment has seen us positioned as a formidable, yet quiet advocate powering several businesses providing technology solutions that ensures organizational efficiency and effectiveness.
