Teletrac was originally founded as International Teletrac Systems in 1988. It received initial funding from a unit of AirTouch Communication (formerly known as Pacific Telesis)〔http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/airtouch-communications-history/〕 in exchange for 49% equity of the company. Teletrac launched two service offerings in 1990 for its flagship Los Angeles market: a consumer service called "Stolen Vehicle Location Services" and a fleet/enterprise service called "Corporate Vehicle Location services". Los Angeles was followed by Detroit, Miami, Dallas, Chicago, and Houston. In 1991, following the lifting or information services restrictions from the AT&T consent decree, AirTouch increased its equity stake and the company became known as AirTouch Teletrac. In 2001, Trafficmaster PLC, a large vehicle location company based in the UK, purchased the assets of Teletrac.〔http://www.teletrac.co.uk/trafficmaster〕 Trafficmaster PLC was purchased by Vector Capital in 2010 in a deal valued at $145 million. The company was publicly traded prior to the purchase, but was taken private as part of the purchase by Vector. Prior to the purchase, Trafficmaster was traded on the London Stock Exchange, with the bulk of its income coming from its operations in the United States. In 2013, Vector Capital sold Teletrac to American conglomerate Danaher Corporation. It was reported that Vector made three-times return with the sale. The same year, Teletrac received an award for ''Best Telematics System'' at the Techie Awards. In 2014 the company added a Stevie Award for ''Most Innovative Company of the Year''.
