Orange
– History
Orange
launched in April 1994 into the UK mobile communications market
with a simple vision. A vision for a brighter future, where
people can communicate wherever, whenever and however they
wish.
Today,
that commitment remains the same. Orange is one of the world's
strongest and most recognised brands. For over five years,
they have aimed to be the first for service, quality, innovation
and choice.
For
example, they were the first company to introduce per second
billing for their customers and to develop a videophone. They
are also constantly developing innovative wirefree™
technology and services - everything from football alerts
to mobile email - you can use at home, work or wherever you
are.
And
that's making your future bright...
