GFI Solutions Consolidates Its Brand

MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - Feb. 15, 2011) - GFI Solutions Group (GFI Solutions) announces that its subsidiary Fortsum Business Solutions will now be operating under the name of GFI SMB Solutions. This decision comes from the company's drive to firmly position a strong brand, one which accurately reflects both the synergy among its various divisions and the reputation of its products, on the market. The momentum accompanying this move also provides GFI Solutions with the opportunity for a brand image overhaul, including the complete revamping of its corporate website.

A quick look at our new website allows our target audience to gauge just how extensive our unique selection of IT products and services is."

"We want all our clients and business partners to identify with the power of a company that has excellent expertise, and we want them to be able to quickly see the advantages this gives them.
