Accounts & Financials
Growth Since inception in 1986
Elonex has grown substantially already having to move
premises in the early 1990's to accommodate its expanding operations. The IT
industry has become far more competitive with the influx of new companies. Elonex
still maintains its position above many competitors because of our exceptional
service and high quality products.
Independence & Stability
Elonex is an Independent business that is not subject to the instability created
by being a listed company. The organisation and its employees can focus on their
responsibilities to the customer and not the demands of the shareholder.
We aim to satisfy the needs of our customers, employees, suppliers, the community
and the environment.
Continuous Improvement
Profits are ploughed back into the business in order to undertake more research
and development but also into training. This enables us to keep pace with
current customer trends and technological changes to provide the superlative in fulfilling our customers demands.
