Rendeavour, owner and developer of Tatu City, has created a new company to deliver high-speed internet connectivity to thousands of digitally underserved residents in nearby towns and informal settlements.
Low cost connectivity
By investing in critical digital infrastructure, Fahari Link will provide low connection fees, daily internet plans, reliable internet connectivity and technical support to citizens of Kiambu County, including those earning subsistence wages.
In addition to connecting homes, Fahari Link will deploy wifi internet connections in public spaces such as shopping centres and sports fields, ensuring that digital access is available to all, including mobile users.
“With Fahari Link, we are not just connecting people; we are connecting aspirations, opportunities, and futures,” said Alex Kahu, Deputy Country Head, Kenya, Rendeavour, the owner and developer of Tatu City. “By expanding affordable internet and broadband services to our neighbouring community, Tatu City is ensuring that no one is left behind in Africa’s digital future.”
Expanding reach
Fahari Link has invested heavily in acquiring wholesale bandwidth from global internet service providers to extend its reach to areas beyond Tatu City, including the informal communities of BTL, OJ and Rutoro. Rapidly growing Ruiru, the sixth fastest growing town in Africa, will be served, as well as the communities of Oaklands, Murera, Kamakis and other parts of Kiambu County. In total, Fahari’s services will be available to close to one million people.
