Kenya: Residential broadband service boosts company sales
AccessKenya Group, Kenya's first publicly-listed ICT company has announced that it has achieved its year-end customer target numbers nearly two months ahead of schedule. It has 3000 customers now signed up to its residential broadband service, Access@Home, and over 3100 customers contracted for its corporate broadband service, Broadband Max.
“We are delighted to report excellent traction in the growth of customer numbers, spurred on by the increased speeds and value for money we have been offering our corporate and residential customers following the arrival of the international fibre optic cables, Seacom and TEAMS. We have now broken the 3,000 residential customer barrier - ahead of our target of 2,800 residential customers, and move past 3,100 corporate customers - our original target for this year,” said Jonathan Somen, group managing director.
AccessKenya was the first service provider to hook up to both Seacom and TEAMS.
