Chad Telecoms, Mobile and Broadband Statistics and Analyses 2017 - Research and Markets

The "Chad - Telecoms, Mobile and Broadband - Statistics and Analyses" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

Chad's telecom market showing steady revenue growth

The country remains one of the least developed on the continent, while telecom infrastructure is particularly poor, with penetration rates in all sectors fixed, mobile and internet well below African averages. The two main operators Millicom (News - Alert) International and Bharti Aircom have invested in infrastructure and have become the main providers of voice and data services.

However, the difficult economic conditions of the country, compounded by a new 18% tax on telecom services which has adversely affected customer spend and consequently on operator revenue, have encouraged these payers to consider exiting the market.

Millicom earlier in 2017 was reported to be in discussions with Orange (News - Alert) Group regarding a potential sale, while in May 2017 Bharti Aircom announced that Chad was one of its regional markets which it considered offloading. Nevertheless, despite difficult operating conditions, large scale poverty and low spending power, Chad's telecom market offers some potential for investors to develop services given the low starting base.
