The firm also provides wholesale voice services to the telecommunications, wireless and cable industries. Headquartered in Dallas, Texas with operations in Atmore, Alabama Matrix employs approximately 300 people. The company was founded in 1990. Matrix is licensed as a facilities-based CLEC and long distance calling provider in 49 states and the District of Columbia (DC). In 1995, Matrix was recognized by Inc. Magazine as one of the fastest-growing private companies in the United States ranking #7 in the United States and #1 in the state of Texas[1] and remained on the list the following year.[2] HistoryIn 1999, Matrix was acquired by Platinum Equity,[3] a global private investment firm specializing in M&A&O. In 2001, Matrix integrated Staples Communications (Staples, Inc.) customers into its operations through an acquisition made by Platinum Equity,[4] and with the purchase of Global Crossing’s Small Business Group in 2005,[5] Matrix launched the Matrix Business Technologies brand to differentiate and focus its market presence between residential and commercial services. Platinum Equity acquired the assets of Trinsic Communications (formerly Z-Tel)[6] in June 2007 and integrated them into Matrix,[7] This addition deepened the residential customer base within Matrix and broadened its national footprint of services. The brand was changed to "Trinsic, Powered by Matrix" On March 16, 2010, Matrix announced it would acquire the customers and substantially all the assets of Dallas-based Excel Telecommunications.
