DISTACOM

Distacom is a private holding company having a track record spanning nearly half a century of investing, building, rolling-out and operating multiple wireless businesses. In the 1970's Distacom launched its first paging service in Canada. It then expanded to Hong Kong and ran the most successful paging company in the market. In the early '80s, Distacom tied up with Motorola and Hutchison to win one of the first mobile licenses in Hong Kong, now one of the world's most sophisticated wireless markets in the world in terms of service penetration and customer choice. In the early 1990's, the Distacom management team initiated the Orange brand while partnered with Hutchison Telecom... Comfortable with both controlling or minority ownership, Distacom is an ideal partner for wireless joint-venture projects in developing markets.
