Mobile firm sets up in Brazil ahead of Olympics 2016

MOBILE solutions firm Cellhire has opened a branch in Brazil, settling in the city of São Paulo ahead of the Olympics in 2016.

The aim is to capitalise on the Brazilian market ahead of the sporting event, after delivering over 14,000 connections at the 2014 FIFA World Cup also held in Brazil.

Cellhire has already secured some major clients for voice and data connections at the event, with some customers travelling out to Brazil as early as May 2016.

Martyn Stevens, director of international business development at Cellhire, says, “Our new office in Brazil is a fantastic opportunity for Cellhire to break into Latin America and build on the back of our success at the FIFA World Cup.

“We’re looking forward to Rio 2016 and we have our unique network agreements in place to really make the most of it and to get our latest office off to a great start.”

The Olympics will be held in Rio in August 2016.
