The Spanish subsidiary of the German based information service provider telegate and the directory media provider QDQ, an enter-prise of the French PagesJaunes Group, will cooperate in the areas of product development and commercial sales marketing.

“We are very pleased to welcome with QDQ a strong, new partner for us in Spain.” says Dr. Andreas Albath, Chief Executive Officer, tele-gate AG. “QDQ’s print and online directory services enjoy a strong reputation and trust amongst Spanish consumers. And the same ap-plies for their professional sales marketing team within the business community.” adds Albath. “This partnership will also facilitate the fur-ther enhancement of the ‘11811’-service portfolio - especially in the growth market internet - and thus marks a vital step towards estab-lishing us as a leading DA-provider for the Spanish consumer.”
