MTN’s Airfibre Offering Surges Across South Africa
Last week, MTN South Africa announced that its airfibre offering, MTN Supersonic, has seen enormous growth since launching in March 2021, with the product now being used in over 3.4-million homes.
“We are continuing to see impressive growth as demand for Airfibre as an alternative to traditional fibre continues,” said Megan Nicholas, MD for MTN Supersonic.
“Our aim is to continue delivering and innovating so that more homes are covered and more people who are not able to access fibre can still be connected to a high-speed and reliable data solution, and through it, global information superhighway.”
