Sudan Telecommunications Market Report
Sudan began its telecom sector reform in 1993 but real developments happened only after the discovery of oil in 1997 which has helped spur growth and generate much needed foreign exchange. With a CAGR of more than 40% over the past five years, Sudan represents by far the fastest growing fixed telephony market not only in Africa but worldwide. Telecommunications investment has skyrocketed from only US$500,000 in 1994 to over US$100 million per year. Enormous further potential exists since the country’s total teledensity is still one of the lowest in the world at less than 3%.
