History

[edit | edit source]

Primary markets were Iberia and Latin America, although Vitelcom had some success in selling mobile handsets to a wider market, either under the Grundig brand or branded by the local mobile network operator.

During 2004 to 2005 Vitelcom was engaged in a patent infringement dispute with Nokia which was resolved before it went to court.[1][2]

In 2007 the company fell into administration[3] and was wound up in 2008. The name "Vitelcom" is now used by a New Zealand IT company.[4]
