By Longphone, PRNEThursday, February 11, 2010
Longphone has Signed its 350th Wholesale Call Termination Interconnection, thus Doubling the Company's Carriers Base since June 2009.
PARIS, February 12 - Longphone recently signed its 350th interconnection agreement. This
figure represents a growth of 100% in Longphone's commercial activity since
the second half of 2009.
The rapidly growing list of carriers opting to interconnect with
Longphone is a direct result of the company's intensive investment in
infrastructure, technology, marketing and customer care. In the past years
the company invested 12 million Euros in VOIP infrastructure and research and
development. In addition to that, the focus on direct connectivity to African
destinations, has positioned Longphone as a leader in VOIP terminations to
this continent, and an obvious choice for wholesalers and retailers who wish
to upgrade and stabilize their connectivity to Africa. Today Longphone
terminates more than 750,000 minutes per day to various African destinations
- with large capacity, robust infrastructure and support, and exclusive
agreements with various Africa-specialized providers, this amount is expected
to double within the next several months.
Gilles Cohen, Longphone's COO, identified Longphone constructive internal
investment, and welcoming, yet conservative approach towards commercial
relations as "the engine which allowed Longphone to maintain solid service to
existing clients while allowing for a careful and sustainable growth. This
financial and infrastructural sustainability put us today in line with
industry leaders when it comes to call terminations to Africa".
