GVTC Communications decided to hold the 2021 Annual Meeting virtually for the safety of customers and team members. This year, GVTC continued its tradition of welcoming newly elected and returning members to its board of directors and announcing an increase in Capital Credits for GVTC members by live-streaming the meeting to their members.

Providing Greater Value
This month, GVTC distributed its largest Capital Credits in the history of the company totaling $7.5 million, an increase from its 2019 issuance of $7.25 million. Led by the GVTC Board of Directors, GVTC has released more than $57 million over the last decade. GVTC’s CEO & President, Ritchie Sorrells says, "GVTC's ability to issue annual Capital Credits this size is a testament to the hard work of our dedicated employees and the visionary leadership of our Board of Directors.”
