History

Cellcom's parent company, Bell Canada Enterprises, was founded in 1880 and named after Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone and the co-founder of Bell Telephone Company. Cellcom Communications was established in 1985. Shortly after cellular phones were emerging into the telecommunications industry, Cellcom was among the first distributors for Bell Canada in the Greater Montreal Area.

In the span of four decades, Cellcom has gone from a single retail store outlet, to 36 stores in Quebec and 18 in Ontario. Heavily investing in Wireless technology, Cellcom has differentiated itself from other small telecommunications retailers by branching out into the corporate realm. Currently, Cellcom has over 900 corporate clients, and roughly over 250,000 consumer customers. They are a distributor and provider for the Canadian wireless industry.[citation needed]
