History

Stream at the Tollway Center building in Dallas, TX

Stream was founded in 2005 by Rob Snyder and Pierre Koshakji.[3][4] The company first offered energy services in Texas following the deregulation of the Texas electricity market. The company expanded to Georgia in 2008, followed by the Northeast in 2010. Stream sells electric and gas services in seven states and Washington, D.C. In 2015, Stream also began offering mobile phone service, Stream Wireless.[2]

Stream moved its headquarters from the Infomart building on Stemmons Freeway to the Tollway Center office building on Dallas Parkway in North Dallas in May 2017.[5][6]

Despite an influx of independent contractors (termed "directors") signing up with Ignite, the multi-level marketing arm of Stream, the majority of this sales force "lost nearly all their investments."[7]
