The Eswatini Posts and Telecommunications Corporation (EPTC) has launched two new promotions, "Connecta Manje!" Broadband and "Shop Without Borders!" E-Commerce Promotion, at its headquarters in Mbabane. EPTC Managing Director Thulani Fakudze stated that these promotions are part of the company's strategic direction to meet the evolving needs of customers and the digital economy. The launch aims to provide innovative solutions for customers and contribute to Eswatini's economic development.

The "Connecta Manje!" Broadband Promotion addresses the growing demand for high-speed internet in Eswatini. Fakudze emphasized that reliable internet is now an essential service, enabling education, entrepreneurship, remote working, digital services, and economic participation. EPTC is investing significantly in fibre infrastructure to expand access to high-speed broadband for households, students, SMEs, corporations, and government institutions.

EPTC's "Connecta Manje!" campaign encourages greater adoption of fibre broadband services, making digital opportunities more accessible to the public. Fakudze highlighted that infrastructure alone does not create impact; its true value is measured by how it improves customers' lives. The company aims to build a digital foundation that supports smart living and smart business in Eswatini.

The "Shop Without Borders!" E-Commerce Promotion is designed to facilitate online shopping from local, regional, and international markets. Fakudze noted that consumer behavior is changing rapidly, with more customers purchasing products online. This presents significant opportunities for businesses and consumers across Eswatini, and EPTC recognizes the importance of enabling commerce and facilitating the movement of goods within the digital economy.

The "Shop Without Borders!" campaign promotes Phutfumani service as a trusted e-commerce delivery solution. Fakudze stated that customers can now shop internationally with greater ease and confidence, and EPTC is simplifying the journey from online purchase to final delivery. This service is a key advancement in EPTC's efforts to evolve its services and meet modern customer expectations.

EPTC's Managing Director, Thulani Fakudze, emphasized that the company is committed to becoming a more innovative, customer-focused, and digitally enabled organization. The company's role extends beyond providing telecommunications and postal services; it aims to enable communication, support businesses, connect communities, and contribute to Eswatini's economic development.

By launching these promotions, EPTC demonstrates its commitment to leveraging infrastructure investments to create meaningful value for customers.
