The new countries added to its network include Afghanistan, Bahrain, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the UAE.

Through this network expansion, Vodacom Business Africa says, it has effectively increased its overall Internet Protocol virtual private network coverage footprint to 63 countries globally.

“We continue to leverage our strategic partner networks across the globe in a cost-effective, seamless and secure manner to provide extensive network coverage, more so now that businesses are facing unprecedented disruptions and need a reliable partner to scale with them,” says Guy Clarke, MD of Vodacom Business International.
