Senegal

Senegal overview

Rosette with number 1 Leading independent towerco

Senegal, located at the westernmost point of the African continent, is the economic hub of West Africa with a population of over 15 million (and growing).

The market checks all the boxes for us: multiple mobile network operators (Free Senegal, Orange and Expresso), strong mobile communications growth, a tower and power infrastructure gap and a currency pegged to the Euro.

Following the close of our acquisition of Free Senegal’s tower portfolio in May 2021, we became the only independent towerco in Senegal, putting us in an advantaged position to support all mobile operators’ expansion plans, be it rural expansion or urban densification.
