Engro Enfrashare was founded in November 2018 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Engro Corporation, as the latter entered the telecommunication infrastructure vertical. We commenced operations in January 2019 upon signing with one of Pakistan’s largest telcos for deploying telecom towers, alongside the Makran Coastal belt under the USF project. At the same time, we acquired a portfolio of dark sites from Deodar, marking a significant milestone in our journey.
Our core activities involve designing, constructing, and managing telecom infrastructure networks that enable connectivity across the Country. We unlock tower value by sharing tower infrastructure, deploying efficient power solutions to optimize costs, and close monitoring of operations – thus, creating higher efficiency and value for our customers. This approach allows mobile network operators to save CAPEX, achieve operational efficiencies, accrue higher profit, and expand their coverage rapidly. Tower-sharing helps optimize the tower footprint in the Country by preventing tower proliferation, removing parallel capacities and excessive network redundancies, and reducing the carbon footprint that results from operating a higher number of towers.
Our purpose remains to make connectivity more accessible and affordable for all. By doing our bit to build a truly connected world, we believe that we will help ensure everyone will have equal access and opportunities to improve their lives — irrespective of wealth, gender, race, or any other factor.
Currently, Engro Enfrashare owns and manages the passive infrastructure of towers, and leases space and power to telecom companies in Pakistan. Our network expands throughout the Country, spreading from Chitral in the North to Karachi in the South, covering some of the most complex and security-challenged terrains including Bolan, Mastung, ex-FATA, and the Makran Coastal Highway.
Today, Engro Enfrashare is the largest independent towerco in Pakistan with over 3,450 towers and hosting more than 3,540 tenants on these sites.
