History

Our history begins back in 1993, when our first paging and cellular store was opened in San Diego, then called Personal Communication Services (PCS). The founder of the company, himself, was instrumental in turning his Company towards growth and local expansion from the very start. He opened two more stores under the same name. He owe more than our name, our logo and our the products to our founder. He embodied many of the key attitudes and values that form part and parcel of our corporate culture: pragmatism, professionalism, flexibility, the willingness to serve, an open mind and respect for everyone.

Continuous innovation and rapid transformation have been themes throughout our history, which the company traces to 1995 with the installation of the first wide area network computer system for commercial use by any small company at that time. The company has built its solid reputation thanks to thorough employees selection and innovative thinking. By the 2001, the company began offering a new breed of solutions to its clients - solutions that aligned their organizations' with technologies, processes, and the right people with their strategies.
