Vodafone has signed a new partner market agreement with Afrimax Uganda to offer voice and data products and services in sub Saharan Africa.
Under the agreement, the two companies will offer the services using ‘Vodafone Uganda’ brand.
The framework agreement will complement Vodacom Group’s operations in South Africa, Tanzania, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Lesotho and Mozambique and has been agreed in conjunction with Vodacom Group.
