Huawei Planning to Move Regional Office from DRC to Ethiopia
Huawei Technologies Corp. seeks to get more business in Ethiopia and is likely to move its regional office from the Democratic Republic Congo (DRC) to Ethiopia, where it currently has a country office. Huawei s move is aimed at Ethiopia s economy opening up its telecommunications sector, Bloomberg reported.
“Ethiopia is rising and becoming much more important for the future,” Loise Tamalgo, Huawei’s head of public relations for 22 countries in sub-Saharan Africa, said in an interview in Ivory Coast’s commercial capital, Abidjan.
“Our strategy is very simple,” Tamalgo said. The company plans to leverage its position as the main vendor of the state-owned monopoly Ethio Telecom to bid for opportunities in the country, he said.
