Helios Towers - Company Profile

Helios Towers is a market-leading telecommunications infrastructure company which has built one of the most extensive tower portfolios across Africa. Founded in 2009, the company operates over 8,600 sites across Tanzania, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Ghana, Republic of Congo, South Africa, and Senegal. It is currently in the process of expanding its presence in new markets across Africa and the Middle East, with the aim of increasing its total site count to approaching 15,000 through recent acquisition agreements and BTS site commitments. Helios Towers' passive infrastructure enables mobile operators to efficiently roll out and enhance coverage, and improve network access across its markets. The company's recent $95.00M debt financing investment in April 2016, led by Standard Bank, demonstrates its potential and attractiveness to investors. Helios Towers' focus on driving the growth of communications in Africa and the Middle East positions it as a key player in the region's telecommunications industry.
