Seimitsu, Corp., a pioneering Savannah-based Technology Solutions and Internet Service Provider, is celebrating their 40thanniversary in business with a special proclamation presented by Mayor Van Johnson at City Hall on November 4, 2024.

Founded by Seimitsu “Sam” Cook and Cynthia D. Cook in 1984, Seimitsu has grown from a local IT service provider to an industry leader, offering managed IT services, cybersecurity, and high-speed Internet Broadband through their 200+ mile network of underground fiber optic cable in Savannah and the surrounding areas. Seimitsu’s services support a diverse range of clients, including national carriers, enterprises, small businesses, hospitals, healthcare providers, governmental agencies, and educational
institutions.

 Mayor Johnson’s proclamation honored Seimitsu’s commitment to advancing the technology infrastructure in Savannah and recognizes its many contributions to the community. Among Seimitsu’s notable achievements are Seimitsu’s response to the
Covid Pandemic where Seimitsu, utilizing their Fiber Network and expertise, enabled thousands of Savannah residents to work remotely during the height of the pandemic, the designing and construction of the small cellular site network in downtown Savannah so that St. Patrick’s Day crowds have phone service, and the establishment of Savannah’s newest large-capacity, disaster-resilient backhaul link to Atlanta, ensuring dependable service for clients across all sectors. 

In receiving the proclamation, Seimitsu co-founder Sam Cook expressed gratitude to the Savannah community and the company’s clients and partners. “Reflecting on our 40-year journey, we are deeply thankful for the support of our community,” said Cook.
“Seimitsu remains dedicated to delivering innovative and reliable Technology solutions, with a continued focus on strengthening our community’s connectivity and technological resilience.”
