United Group Takes Over Bulgarian Vivacom
This follows the approval of the deal by the European Commission in April 2020 and the signing of the agreement in November 2019, when United Group won the tender to acquire the leading telecommunications company in Bulgaria.
Vivacom was the first telecommunications company in Bulgaria and has been the largest domestic operator in terms of revenues for the last seven years. Its market-leading position has been driven by strong understanding of customers’ needs and bringing technological innovations to provide advanced, high-quality services including fibre broadband, mobile communications and digital TV to private and commercial customers.
This acquisition marks the latest milestone in United Group’s growth strategy, following the acquisition of TELE2 Croatia earlier this year, as well as forthcoming completion of the acquisition of the Greece’s pay TV, telecom and Internet provider Forthnet. Operating in both the telecoms and media sectors, the United Group platform combines the leading operators and best content producers in Southeast Europe and will finish the year with over 10 million users and over 11 thousand employees.
– With the arrival to the Bulgarian market, United Group obliges to contribute to a further development of the telecoms sector in the country through investments in talented people, technology and infrastructure – the press release says.
