The acquisition will, therefore, make IHS the leading owner, operator, and developer of shared telecommunication infrastructure in emerging markets. It will also help the company expand its service to Latin America Countries.

The Chairman and CEO IHS Towers, Sam Darwish, noted that the acquisition was birthed from Brazil’s topography and compact urban areas. This recent economic upturn provided a running ground for favorable macroeconomic factors and the deployment of 4G and 5G networks. 

Although the acquisition is currently awaiting approval, when gone through, IHS will control a major stake in Brazil’s telecoms sector. 

The company will also manage over 2,290 towers owned by CSS in Brazil and Colombia.
