Helios Towers owns and operates telecommunications towers and passive infrastructure in five high-growth African markets. Their main activity is to build, acquire and operate telecommunications towers capable of serving the needs of multiple tenants.
With a network of 6,745 towers, it is the market leader in Tanzania, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Congo Brazzaville, with further operations in Ghana and soon in South Africa.
Its tenants are typically large multinational corporations and other telecommunications service providers who, in turn, provide wireless voice and data services, primarily to end consumers and businesses.
Helios Towers also offers full operational services related to the tower, including site selection, site preparation, maintenance, security and power management. They provide space on their tower sites under a combination of Master Lease Agreements (MLAs), which provide the commercial terms and conditions governing the provision of tower space, and Individual Site Agreements (ISAs), which serve as an annex to the relevant LRM and include site-specific information. They also enter into land leases with landlords to host the sites on their lands.
