Global textware celebrates 10th anniversary - or was it the fifth anniversary?

On 1 January 1997 the precursor of the IT translation office Global textware was founded by the current director and owner Raymund Prins in conjunction with Peter ten Hoor, director-owner of LINE UP Book and Media, among other enterprises. The partnership was called LINE UP textware and was engaged in translating software and all associated activities.

The localization company quickly developed and could expand in only its second year of operation. In subsequent years the company consistently grew by an average of 25%, until it reached its current size a few years ago.

In the meantime, Peter ten Hoor had withdrawn from the company in 2002 and the software translation office was renamed Global textware as of 1 October 2002. Accordingly, this year witnesses festivities from January to October, from the moment that the current company originated to the moment that it was continued under its current name 5 years ago.

The festivities were heralded by a new logo that was introduced this year. In addition, the website will also be given a new layout. Preparations are in full swing and we expect the renovated website to be presented in the very near future.
