Mobile Communications Technology in Tanzania

Tanzania has 4,086,245 subscribers (28% penetration) and four main networks viz: tiGo, Celtel, Vodacom and Zantel.

With a strong mobile market, Tanzania has great potential for further growth in mobile service provision due to the country’s poor fixed-line infrastructure.
