Flow offering all Barbados customers faster internet
Cable & Wireless Communications (CWC) has made 1Gbps internet speeds available to all customers of its Flow brand in Barbados.
The company made the decision in order to meet continued growth in demand for increased bandwidth and speeds, according to a report by local paper The Broad Street Journal.
"Reliable access to high-speed broadband is critical to connecting Barbados to the digital world," said Flow Barbados' managing director Niall Sheehy during the announcement.
Sheehy added that this investment in CWC's fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) network has already attracted over 300 customers in Barbados.
Flow introduced 1Gbps speeds as a premium option in 2014, but it had limited availability and was only accessible via special request until now.
Earlier this month, Flow's main competitor Digicel announced an investment in its own fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) infrastructure, as well as the launch of its pay-TV and fixed broadband services.
