SEACOM integrates Africell infrastructure to power broadband expansion

KAMPALA, UGANDA: SEACOM, a telecommunications service provider has started integrating its infrastructure and the assets it acquired from Africell last year.

Africell quit the Ugandan market late last year following a string of losses and consistent accumulation of debts, and SEACOM acquired some of its assets. Now, SEACOM says this will help it in its broadband infrastructure network expansion drive, as part of its five-year strategy.

“By officially establishing ourselves in Uganda through proprietary facilities and resources, we are prioritizing widespread connectivity and opening up opportunities to work with businesses in search of quality Internet services,” said Tejpal Bedi, Managing Director for East Africa.

The move allowed SEACOM to expand its portfolio of infrastructure essential for connecting enterprise customers, to more than 800 kilometers in and around Kampala city.

SEACOM says it is responding to the needs of the market, where customers are starting to buy more bandwidth, while businesses are making use of the cloud more than ever before, using enterprise resource planning.
