The story
Businessman Artan Dulaku established Theatre International sh.p.k in 2004, a privately owned telecommunications company. It became operational by 2007 and launched under the Tring Communications brand the following year.
The platform initially focused on satellite and digital television broadcasting before expanding into IPTV, broadband internet and fixed telephony services. During its early years, Tring invested heavily in digital broadcasting infrastructure and content acquisition, becoming one of Albania’s leading subscription television operators. By 2009, Tring had already been serving 30,000 households in the country.
In 2018, the company celebrated its tenth anniversary, describing itself as the country's only "multi-dimensional media" operator offering television, internet and telephone services in a single package. At the time, Tring offered more than 120 channels through its My Tring IPTV service.
Over the years, Tring expanded its programming portfolio through licensing agreements with international broadcasters and distributors. In 2020, the company signed a long-term content agreement with Kanal D International for the distribution of Turkish television dramas in Albania.
In 2025, local media reported that Tring was acquired by Vertex Holding, a company linked to Kosovo-based investors. The transaction was reviewed and later approved by the Albanian Competition Authority.
