BASKING RIDGE, N.J. and MEXICO CITY, May 14 /PRNewswire/ — Verizon
Business has received government approval to directly deliver advanced
communications services in Mexico. The Value Added authorization, issued by
Mexico’s regulatory entity, COFETEL, will enable Verizon Business to better
serve multinational companies with operations in Mexico. The company had
previously been delivering services through partnerships with local
telecommunications providers.
Verizon Business has also taken a number of steps to more effectively
serve the local needs of its multinational customer base. A new operating
company, Verizon Business Mexico, has been established, which will deliver
a range of data and Internet protocol (IP) services, including Verizon
Private IP, Verizon Internet Dedicated and managed network services.
Verizon Business is also in the final stages of deploying multi-protocol
label switching (MPLS) nodes in Mexico City and Monterrey to support
Private and Public IP services.
Blair Crump, group president international and premier accounts,
Verizon Business, said: “Mexico is a key location for many of our
multinational customers, and this authorization gives us more local
capabilities to support their strategic business needs. Verizon Business is
focused on providing industry-leading services and capabilities to our
customers around the world. We look forward to bringing our expertise to
bear in Mexico as we expand our offerings and locally based operations.”
The enhancements in Mexico are only part of Verizon Business’
investments in Latin America. The company also recently completed an
expansion of its Brazilian network capabilities by deploying Private IP,
Public IP and Global Data Link nodes in Sao Paulo, and a Private IP node in
Rio de Janeiro.
Verizon Business’s global network offers multinational companies
unsurpassed security, reliability and speed.
