Akbar Shaukat, Chief Executive of AWAL Telecom, said:

“The Tower Infrastructure partnership agreement with UFONE is a beginning of a long term business relation between both companies where not only Tower Infrastructure Sharing will be the subject, but will also give opportunities to partner in terms of Active Infrastructure sharing in the times to come. AWAL shall ensure that UFONE network is continually enhanced and expanded while maintaining low operating costs for the network operator”.

“Placing tower infrastructure in the hands of tower specialists benefits consumers, businesses and local economies, as well as the operators themselves. Our hands-on experience and towers portfolio in the market, coupled with strong relationships with mobile network operators and equipment suppliers, allows us to bring improvements right across the value chain”.
