Gila River Telecommunications, Inc. is owned and operated by the Gila River Indian Community. GRTI has been in operation for 21 years providing telephone, Internet, High Speed DSL and data services for both residential and business customers. Each year, GRTI develops a strategic plan to provide better and more services to meet the needs of the Community. As part of the goals of GRTI, a dividend is given to the Community each year. This year the GRTI Board of Directors have given a record breaking contribution of $1,027,846.17 to the Gila River Indian Community. The check was presented in GRIC Tribal Council meeting on November 28, 2009 in Sacaton Az.
A newly organized subsidiary of GRTI is Alluvion Communications which is managed by Derek White. Alluvion can offer businesses in the Lone Butte Industrial Park foreign exchange numbers, which means phone numbers that start with the area codes 602 / 623 / 520 (the 520 area code is other than GRIC calling area for example Casa Grande). This service is specific for businesses that need have a phone number so their customers can call those area code numbers. Alluvion can also service surrounding communities offering wholesale and advanced retail services specific for their telecom needs. This is a great opportunity to generate new business services.
Native Technology Solutions (NTS). The type of services offered by NTS are business phone systems, cabling, security systems, and more services. You can go to either GRTI or NTS website (www.Native-Tech.net) to find more information. NTS and Alluvion are owned and operated by GRTI.
We appreciate the support of the Community to provide an opportunity for your telecommunication needs for residents and businesses of the Gila River Indian Community. Congratulations on the success of GRTI, NTS and Alluvion. |
