Thirty years ago, a team of 20 set out with a simple goal: to connect South Africans. Today, we celebrate a remarkable journey that has taken us far beyond that initial plan.

We have grown into Africa's leading digital operator, connecting over 288 million people across more than 18 markets. This achievement is a testament to the power of collaboration.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to all our stakeholders: those who have been with us from the start and those who have joined us more recently.

To our employees, past and present: your 'can-do' spirit and hard work have been instrumental in making it all happen.

To our investors: your support has paved the way for our growth and innovation.

And to our customers: your choice of MTN and your trust in us to connect you to what matters most is deeply appreciated. Your loyalty and feedback have been invaluable in shaping our services and making us the top African brand.

We are privileged to have played a role in Africa's digital transformation, witnessing firsthand the positive impact that connectivity has on lives and livelihoods.

We remain driven to extending digital and financial inclusion, and – in so doing – giving Africans hope, dignity and opportunity.

Our success is a shared one, and together, we will unlock even greater possibilities for Africa, creating a future where everyone is connected, empowered, and thriving.

Thank you for being a part of our journey.
