Tusass, previously known as Tele-Post, is a Greenlandic postal and telecommunications company with roots dating back to 1879. It is the largest telecommunications company in Greenland, with its headquarters situated in Nuuk. The company is organised into three business areas: postal (mail), commercial, and IT services. Tusass is also responsible for managing the top-level domain for Greenland, .gl, and owns the sea cable Greenland Connect. The present form of the company, TELE Greenland A/S, was established in 1997 following the merger of TELE Greenland and Kalaallit Allakkeriviat, the Greenland Postal Service. After the merger, Kalaallit Allakkeriviat was transformed into a business unit and took on the new name of POST Greenland. The unified designation of "TELE-POST" was used for both businesses. In 2021, TELE-POST underwent a rebranding and adopted the name Tusass, which translates to "talk to you later" in Greenlandic slang.
