<td width="550">California Graphics, the 3D
hardware company for games, has announced that it
has opened a new office to support the growing
demand for its products. California Graphics
Europe Limited will concentrate on supporting
distributors, dealers and end users throughout
Europe as well as Africa, the Middle East and
Australia.<br>
"We are a truly international company with
offices now covering all the main geographical
areas," explained Vincenzo Coccoli, Chairman
and CEO of California Graphics. "Our
recently opened American distribution centre in
Iowa demonstrated the importance of having a good
central location with fast courier connections
throughout both North and South America.
California Graphics Europe will use Heathrow as
the hub for its region of activities as it is the
best-connected airport in Europe."<br>
Nigel Robson, Operations Director of California
Graphics Europe Limited, added, "Within a
few days of putting our address on the web, we
were inundated with dealers and distributors
interested in handling our products. The superb
reviews that our innovative products have been
receiving have also resulted in numerous
customers wanting to buy directly from us from
countries as far afield as Finland and South
Africa. The web has really changed the way that
we can sell computer products -- as the very fact
that customers are using the web means that they
are computer literate and understand what makes
our products so good."<p><font size="3"><br>
