About / Team

 

The Company...

 

Ocean Systems was formed in 1998 by a group of like-minded individuals with a passion for technology and international trade. Since then we have been supplying small and medium sized UK businesses with innovative computer solutions and IT support from our offices in Wilmslow.

 

We also identified the opportunities presented by the emerging markets of Africa and during the course of the next decade we developed an unrivalled network of friends, contacts and partners in West Africa.

 

Our distribution facility close to Manchester International Airport provides us with excellent air, road and rail links. Today Ocean Systems is recognised as one of the leading experts in technology and general procurement trade throughout the the African region. With regional offices in Sierra Leone, Ghana, The Gambia and Nigeria we offer a secure and reliable trading channel for both our customers and manufacturers.
