The Project
A fast-growing company in a dynamic market, MetroFibre is the third-largest fibre-optic network operator in South Africa, with more than 500,000 households passed. To meet growing demand and reduce the digital divide in the country, the company launched a new offering in 2023 to meet the needs of modest households and disadvantaged areas.
STOA’s support will enable MetroFibre to invest more than 2 billion South African rand in its core network to improve its services to both individuals and businesses. Customers will benefit from improved access to Internet infrastructure and reliable, high-quality products.
