Our Story

Like many family-owned businesses, CTK has traversed a unique path since the company's 
inception. Aleck Vasiliou established Cabletek Systems Inc. in 1999, surrounded by a small team 
of local technicians. With a focus on structured cabling, Aleck prioritized the customer 
experience, building strong relationships and ensuring his clients’ needs came first. Cabletek 
thrived throughout the 2000’s, securing work from large customers like Cineplex and the Peel 
District School Board. 

In 2014, Aleck was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, making it increasingly difficult to keep 
up with the operations of the business, and casting uncertainty over the company’s future. In late 
2017, Aleck took on a business partner under a new company name and Cabletek became 
inactive.  

It was at this time that Aleck’s son, Chris Vasiliou, began working for the new company as a 
technician. He had graduated from a Civil Engineering program at Humber College earlier that 
year. When the business partnership ended in 2021, Aleck and Chris were able to revive their old 
business and in October of that same year, Cabletek was reactivated. With several years of 
experience now under his belt, Chris took over the daily operations of the company.  

With the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, Chris, serving as the Vice President, began to 
rebuild Cabletek with a focus on putting systems, structure and personnel in place to create long-
term growth. With Aleck’s guidance, Chris developed new divisions of the company to 
complement their structured cabling services and meet the evolving needs of their most loyal 
clients. In early 2022, Cabletek launched its electrical division. With hard work, focus and 
determination, the company experienced a period of unprecedented growth.  

Cabletek had undergone major transformations since 1999, but it was time to make one more 
change to the business. In 2023, Cabletek Systems Inc. became CTK, a manifestation of the 
company’s desire to be limitless in their service offerings to their clients. Customers, new 
employees and colleagues alike often ask for the meaning behind the name CTK, but the letters 
do not stand for anything. Nonetheless, there is great significance to them. CTK pays tribute to 
the Cabletek name and serves as a vestige of the family business’ beginnings. More importantly, 
it is a reminder of the unending possibilities that lay ahead. 

CTK is now a licensed electrical, certified structured cabling and certified security contractor 
with a strong presence across Canada. Aleck is now able to focus on his health while 
contributing to the company in new ways. Chris continues to work tirelessly to grow and expand 
the business.

 

There is no project too large and no job too small, CTK is willing to do it all.
