Pepito - Mascot


Who is Pepito?

He's precocious, and cute. He loves kids and "big people" alike and has become a world traveler via his GKG Internet access. If you have not had the opportunity to meet Pepito, our lovable mascot, then you are missing a very warm experience. Adults and children flock to hug, touch and be near this cuddly kid who helps tie together our colorful past and our vibrant present.

His name is derived from our CEO's Nickname coupled with a children's rhyme he grew up reciting when growing up in Mexico. Pepito is a child because use of the Internet can be compared to the child like qualities we all posses; a world of information at your fingertips ready to be absorbed. Pepito has furthered his imagination through his vast Internet travels. He views the world through his imaginary telescope made from a toilet paper roll.
