The little history of KTEL in Kastoria

After its establishment in 1952, Kastoria's Ktel company certainly faced the usual challenges of start-ups, such as establishing a reliable network, acquiring initial vehicles and building brand awareness. Its main objective then was to serve the local Kastoria region.

• 1970 to 1990 - Growth and expansion. This period was marked by significant growth for Ktel Kastoria. The company has invested in upgrading its fleet, expanding its network to connect Kastoria to neighboring towns and villages, and potentially hiring additional staff. The opening of the Kastoria bus station in 1975 was an important milestone.
• From 1990 to the year 2000 - Changing landscape. The privatization of Ktel Kastoria in 1995 likely led to significant changes in the company's structure and operations. It had to face increased competition from other transport providers, which required adaptations and strategic decisions.
• From the year 2000 to today - Modernization and sustainability. This period also saw investments in new technologies, such as the launch in 2005 of their website and electronic ticketing. Ktel Kastoria seems committed to modernization and sustainability. The launch of online services, the acquisition of electric buses and the emphasis on passenger comfort are recent developments that reflect these commitments.
