History

The company aCon was founded in 2003 by Allan Kaczmarek. The idea was to develop kiosk terminals for retail businesses. Production and development started in his father's garage but within long the business was moved to better facilities at Danfoss A/S in Nordborg, Denmark. In 2004, the company bid on an assignment for PostDanmark. PostDanmark wanted a self-service solution by means of a self-service post office.

Less than two years later, aCon and PostDanmark initiated a pilot period starting on the 6th of September 2006 to the 1st of July 2007. The pilot was a great success for PostDanmark and aCon. Subsequently, aCon has developed versions for post offices in other countries.

In January 2013 aCon A/S licensed all postal products to Postacon ApS, managed and owned by Flemming Toft, CEO of aCon from 2006 to 2012.

Postacon is now the exclusive producer and distributor for the aCon postal products.
