Celebrating 10 years
13-11-2008
What started out as an off the wall idea after a game of 5 a-side football has ended up as a Company boasting prestigious global corporations as customers such as ExxonMobil, EDS and Trafficmaster.
We would like to extend a big thank you to all our customers without whom we would not exist. We look forward to continuing our partnerships with you into the next decade.
We would also like to thank each and every member of the Jemmac team for their drive, determination, passion and commitment.
Jemmac Software, 1998-2008
