EMS, an integrated information and communication technology infrastructure solutions provider, is pleased to announce that its wholly owned Singapore subsidiary, EMS Wiring Systems Pte Ltd (“EMS”), has entered into an agreement for the installation of a data centre in Singapore valued at circa US$1 million. This is equivalent to three times the average monthly turnover of the Company during the same period for the 2018 financial year.
Pierre Fourie, Group Managing Director of GST, commented:
As stated during our IPO road show, the directors believed that becoming a listed company could change perceptions of EMS in the eyes of larger potential customers and so potentially increase company turnover. We have expanded our engineering design and installation teams to ensure that we can execute larger scale projects on time and within budget.
