Our history

How did it all begin?

Beginning as a company focused on telecommunications and mobile innovations, Teracomm Ltd was founded in 2003 and covered the supply of value-added mobile services (MVAS) in the areas of mobile payments, portals, and solutions for large corporate customers, as well as mobile marketing and notifications for the business.

Restructure and new focus

The IoT unit of the company was established 10 years later with the development of the first home automation system “She”, which laid the foundation of the now well-known brand Shelly. In 2015 the corporation was completely restructured with the affiliate IoT-focused company Allterco Robotics being established. Following the launch of the first GPS/GSM smartwatch for kids MyKi, the first devices for home and office automation under the Shelly line were introduced.

International success

The successful development and realization of IoT products not only in Bulgaria but also in the international markets led to the strategic decision to sell the European telecommunications business and put a focus entirely on the areas of IoT and Wearables.

Allterco carried out its initial public offering and started trading on the Bulgarian Stock Exchange (A4L) in 2016.
