Telemach is the third largest mobile operator in Slovenia with over 600,000 customers.[1]

History[edit]

The company was established in 2006. Tušmobil gained its mobile license when US-based Western Wireless International (Vega) shut down its network at the end of May 2006. In March 2007, Tušmobil selected Nokia as its GSM/EDGE core and radio network supplier. Tušmobil officially started operations on 31 October 2007. In 2008, it also acquired a UMTS license. Tušmobil commercially launched UMTS 900 in July 2010. The network was upgraded to support HSPA+ in November 2010. In the last quarter of 2014, Tušmobil had a market share of 13%. Telemach acquired 100% of Tušmobil in April 2015.[2] Telemach commercially launched LTE in June 2015 and renovated the existing GSM/UMTS network with equipment from one of the largest telecom equipment vendors Huawei.[3]
