MTN Ghana Emerges as Third Major Subsidiary Within MTN Group
The milestone reflects MTN Ghana’s consistent performance, market leadership, and contribution to the Group’s overall growth strategy.
MTN Ghana has achieved a significant milestone after being officially recognized as the third major subsidiary within the MTN Group. The announcement was made by Group CEO Ralph Mupita, who commended the Ghanaian operation for its strong performance and future potential.
Speaking on the achievement, Mupita noted that until the end of last year, MTN Group had only two major subsidiaries across its markets serving more than 300 million customers — South Africa and Nigeria. He explained that Ghana has now joined this top tier due to its operational excellence and growth trajectory.
“Up until the end of last year, we’ve had two major subsidiaries within the context of the MTN Group across all markets serving the 300 million plus customers, and that was South Africa and Nigeria. This year we’re adding Ghana as the third major subsidiary for the whole group, purely as a function of the way it has performed and the potential that we see going forward of this operation.”
