ack in 1995, VIP Wireless owners Chris Kramer and Matthew Milhan realized that the world was changing and that cellular phones were no longer a luxury but, in fact, a necessity. Taking this into consideration, the two partners decided to start their own business with the goal of assisting their customers with all of their cellular/wireless needs in a personalized and friendly atmosphere.

Today, VIP Wireless is in its 14th year of operation.

The staff at VIP Wireless is focused on providing exceptional customer service and prides itself on a high rate of customer satisfaction. VIP Wireless is owner-operated at all times so customers know that either Chris or Matthew will be able to personally assist them in their purchases. According to the owners, “Customers need to be able to trust their wireless dealer. We create a personal relationship with each of our customers built on trust, reliability and friendship.�
