On launching operations in Dominica, Digicel introduced a variety of first-to-market products and services such as free voicemail, call me, credit me -- to name but a few -- which drove change in the Dominican mobile market. Digicel said it is committed to ensuring that its customers receive the best network, the best service and the best value in Dominica and across of all its 32 operations worldwide.

Richard Stanton, Country Manager of Digicel Dominica: "Today, Dominica's Bigger, Better Network just got even bigger and even better with our acquisition of Orange Dominica. Orange customers are now part of Dominica's largest network calling circle and, from today, will enjoy the multiple benefits of best value, best service and best network that Digicel delivers."

Digicel Group CEO, Colm Delves, said of Monday's announcement: "In just eight years, Digicel has grown rapidly and now has operations in 32 markets worldwide. Our success across the Caribbean and beyond is based on ensuring that we deliver on our commitment to providing the best mobile experience, by our willingness to choose and invest in the right technologies and innovative products and services -- and by ensuring we drive value for customers day in, day out. We are delighted to be welcoming the Orange customers to Dominica's Bigger, Better Network."
