“Telkom has been connecting people for the last century and therefore we need to take all South African along on this new technological journey.  Telkom is on a mission to reclaim the home and continue being the brand that connects people to their potential through technology,” says Gugu Mthembu, Executive Brand and Product Segments at Telkom.


Over the past few years, Telkom has invested in improving their infrastructure and product offerings; a move that has continued to boost the brand's presence across the country. Telkom now has an extensive footprint across the country; thanks in part to  the improved coverage and roaming agreement with another mobile network operator to reach areas where Telkom has no coverage.

Telkom is about to remind South Africans what the brand is capable of and how we have remained at the forefront of advancing communication and access technology for South Africans. This partnership will assist Telkom to ensure every household in our country understands the value of being connected on Telkom’s affordable offering and bringing the brand promise to reality in their lives.,” adds Mthembu.
