Today, these three divisions function under the umbrella of the Computer Warehouse Group. The Group has evolved into an IT powerhouse with a focus on enabling businesses through strategic partnerships with world class organisations such as Infosys, DELL, and Oracle amongst others. CWG has indeed grown over the years, establishing regional offices in West and East Africa; CWG Ghana Limited (2003) and CWG Uganda (2010) respectively handling the business interest of these regions. We are fast becoming a Pan African ICT Solutions brand with plans for presence in at least 5 African countries by 2015.
