The Kenya Pipeline Corporation (KPC) is developing a diversified pricing model for its recently launched fibre-optic cable (FOC) business, to entice smaller off-takers who have largely been excluded from the crucial infrastructure.
The new model will allow tier 2 and tier 3 internet service providers (ISPs), which are smaller off takers serving sub-national or even local regions, to pay lower rates for access to the internet fibre cable compared to tier 1 providers like Safaricom, Airtel, and others.
