MONTREAL – Fibrenoire, a fibre connectivity services provider for businesses in Quebec and Ontario, announced today it has acquired Société des Réseaux Dédiés et Privés Inc. (SRDP Telecom) and Réseau du Haut-Richelieu Inc. (RHRI), two independent fibre optic networks in the Greater Montreal Area.
Fibrenoire’s network now serves more than 500 commercial and industrial buildings and 39 data centres in Quebec and Ontario, as well as secondary markets such as St-Hyacinthe, Drummondville, Granby, St-Jean-sur-Richelieu and Sherbrooke.
“Thanks to our network, clients can deploy the extremely powerful and robust telecommunications infrastructures essential for running cloud applications like business continuity and data backup and to send massive amounts of information through the internet, to increase productivity and achieve significant operational gains,” said Fibrenoire president and CEO Benjamin Desmarais in a statement.
The transaction was completed with the help of Novacap, a Quebec-based private investment company. With these acquisitions, the company says its network has expanded to more than 75 million fibre-metres, making it the largest business fibre network provider in Quebec.
