Frogfoot Expands KwaZulu-Natal Network with Mitsol Fibre Acquisition

Frogfoot  has expanded its footprint in KwaZulu-Natal with the acquisition of fibre assets that were built and operated by Mitsol (Pty) Ltd.  The transition brings another 19,000 homes onto the Frogfoot network and consolidates the company’s position as a leading fibre network operator in the province. This purchase will deliver immediate benefits to customers in the region, through our extensive national footprint, and years of industry experience.

The integration of Mitsol’s fibre network into Frogfoot’s national fibre infrastructure will bring the benefit of Frogfoot’s national pricing structure, client support and access to a number of internet service providers.

“Mitsol is a meaningful acquisition for us. This is a quality network that has been well built and maintained, and the Mitsol team has done an excellent job in growing and supporting its client base. The location of the Mitsol fibre precincts fits neatly into our existing Frogfoot network, with limited overlap. We are excited to bring our brand to a larger number of homes across the greater Durban area.”

– Richard Henn, Head of Mergers and Acquisitions, Frogfoot

Mitsol will continue to operate as an ISP on the new Frogfoot network, under its well established Resinet brand.

The Frogfoot team will work closely with Mitsol to ensure that the transition happens with the least amount of disruption to clients and services. Customers will be able to access the Frogfoot national support centre and will enjoy the benefits of ongoing network investments.

The acquisition forms part of Frogfoot’s ongoing expansion strategy, which includes strengthening service delivery in key regional areas. KwaZulu-Natal is a priority growth market, and this transition gives the company a stronger presence across the province.
