History

In 1999, World Wide Technology spun off its telecommunications division to form Telcobuy.com (now known as TBX).[2][unreliable source] During its first year of business, the company sold 94 percent of its equipment inventory to SBC Communications Inc., Bell Atlantic Corp. and GTE Corp.[3]

Operations

TBX has included supplier diversity in its supply chain — spending more than $57 million with minorities, women, and Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Businesses (SDVOB) since 2001.[4]

In October 2009, the company partnered with IBM for Cisco systems as a Cisco Certified Gold Partner. The company ships in-stock Cisco equipment directly from its inventory, while non-stocked items are processed and drop-shipped from Cisco.[5]
