New Titan Communications President Articulates Vision for Future of Division
December 05, 2007
Titan Global Holdings, Inc (OTCBB:TTGL), a high growth diversified holding company, today reinforced its ongoing commitment to executing on new opportunities for the Company's Communications division as former Sprint Nextel director Brad Kropf officially begins his role as President.
"Building on the prior successes of Titan's Communications division is my number one priority," said Brad Kropf, President of Titan Communications. "Oblio Telecom and its trusted brands provide a foundation for our future growth. We will continue to seek ways to strengthen our network operations, reduce network costs, enhance call quality and seek key partnerships in strategic distribution channels. Continued release of new product offerings for our distribution partners is also a key objective."
Prior to joining Titan, Mr. Kropf served in leadership roles with Sprint Nextel Corporation. Most recently, Mr. Kropf served as Director of Sprint Nextel's Prepaid Solutions Group, which was responsible for both the retail and promotional sales of prepaid stored-value solutions. Mr. Kropf led all divisional functions including sales, marketing, product, operations, card production, logistics, strategic planning, and business development for the Prepaid Solutions Group, and transformed the business unit into one of Sprint Nextel's fastest growing businesses.
"As evidenced by Brad's addition, we are committed to the success of our Communications Division," said Bryan Chance, President and Chief Executive Officer of Titan Global Holdings. "This division has generated strong revenue and earnings growth in past years. We will continue to deploy capital to hire the best talent and commit the necessary resources to ensure our international network and wireless operations are market leaders. Brad's leadership and experience are invaluable in this process."
Titan Communications recently announced that it is continuing its unprecedented organic growth with the shipment of over 27,000 Ready Mobile PCS handsets since October 1, 2007. In October, Titan Wireless announced a distribution agreement with a national retail chain to distribute more than 36,000 Ready Mobile-branded PCS handsets.
These developments continue to validate the Company's high-growth business strategy focused on generating revenues from trusted wireless brand products through a retail distribution system that now reaches more than 86,000 locations.
