CHANNEL PARTNERS Granite Telecommunications (Booth #3031 at the Channel Partners Conference & Expo), an enterprise wholesaler of telephone, wireless, structured cabling and broadband services, has expanded its suite of product offerings to include security solutions via its wholly owned subsidiary, Granite Guard. Through a single point of contact, Granite Guard provides fire and intrusion monitoring, closed-circuit television and access control to businesses across the U.S. and Canada. Granite touts the product as the leading corporate loss-prevention provider to multi-location companies through its scalable solutions, customized to manage local, regional and national locations. 

As Granite enters into the loss-prevention and risk-management business, it will rely heavily on its channel partners.

Granites success and growth is partly attributed to the significant contributions of its Channel Partners. We hope that they can contribute for Granite Guard as they have done for Granite,” said Charlie Pagliazzo, Granite Director of Channels.

We are constantly looking for new ways to improve our offerings and meet the ever changing needs of our customers, so security solutions were a natural progression for our business. Whether it is security or telecommunications solutions, our customers see significant savings and a decrease in overhead expenses. This value is visible not only in direct cost savings but by decreasing administrative burdens and by offering our customers one stop shopping for all of their needs,” said Rob Hale, Granite president and CEO.
