Globecomm Launches European Brand in The Netherlands

HAUPPAUGE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 31, 2012-- Globecomm Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: GCOM), a leading global provider of communications solutions and services, announced today the integration of its European-based subsidiaries C2C and Mach6 into Globecomm Europe, effective September 1, 2012.

The combined entity, headquartered in The Netherlands, will continue to build upon and leverage the strengths of the Globecomm brand and its former subsidiaries while further enhancing the company’s global presence.

Both C2C and Mach6 were acquired by Globecomm within the last few years and have strategically continued their European regional leadership in the managed satellite communications solutions space. Globecomm Europe enhances the continuity of the Globecomm global network, which, combined with the company’s operations in South Africa, furthers its international reach.

David Hershberg Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Globecomm Systems Inc., said: “Globecomm Europe represents the value and history of C2C and Mach6 and the strong, combined identities which are part of an exciting new brand. Along with the recent re-branding of our South African operation as Globecomm Systems SA, we continue to expand the Globecomm brand to accurately reflect our worldwide reach. Our resources are now stronger than ever in Europe, South Africa and around the globe, where Globecomm is privileged to serve thousands of customers in more than 100 countries.”
