Hexatronic US Inc, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hexatronic Group AB, has today signed a strategic partner agreement with Ting Internet in the US, with a projected value of over 50 MUSD.

We are very proud to have become a strategic partner to Ting and support them in their ambitious build plans. With our proven FTTH solution that focuses on an efficient install and high quality, reinforced by our field support services and training, we are confident that we will bring value to the Ting FTTH build. We see this agreement as further proof of our strategy to bring value to our customers by providing the lowest Total Cost of Ownership with our solutions and services. We will continue to invest in the US market to support Ting and other customers,” says Henrik Larsson Lyon, CEO of Hexatronic Group.
