Connecting the nation: Altnets supplies ISPs across all corners of the UK

Connecting the nation

In the past year we have expanded our operations to supply Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in all four nations of the UK, an incredible feat which is a testament to the work of our top-quality team. As a leading telecoms procurement specialist, our mission has always been to support ISPs nationwide in meeting their supply chain requirements. From major cities to remote rural areas, we offer a ‘full package’ of telecoms solutions to our customers — consultancy, design, specification, product procurement, supply chain management, planning, forecasting and scheduling.

We supply ISPs all the way from the Shetland Islands to the southern tip of Cornwall, Northern Ireland, and the rolling landscapes of Wales. Our award-winning team understands the diverse needs of each customer and is dedicated to delivering tailored solutions that ensure fast and reliable fibre broadband connectivity, even in the most challenging or remote areas.

One of our core objectives at Altnets is supporting ISPs in closing the digital divide in the UK. Our latest thought leadership article, “How Internet Service Providers are Solving the UK’s Digital Divide“, authored by Technical Director Leigh Buckwell, delves into the critical need to address the Digital Divide. Leigh examines how ISPs play a vital role in building networks, connecting end-users, and promoting digital equality. This report highlights our commitment to driving positive change through connectivity.

We believe that every community deserves and needs access to fast and reliable internet to reap the benefits of today’s digital age. Through strong partnerships with ISPs including Fibrus in Northern Ireland, Wildanet in Cornwall, Shetland Telecom, and Ogi in Cardiff, we are making significant strides in connecting those who have previously been underserved. By bridging this gap, we empower businesses, support educational initiatives and enhance overall quality of life.

Our expert team has been hand-picked for their understanding of the complexities of telecoms procurement and the challenges ISPs face in expanding their services. That’s why we are more than a service provider; we are your partner in confidently navigating the current and future telecoms landscape. Our knowledge and extensive product range make us the ideal choice for ISPs looking to build the best quality infrastructure and deliver a great service to their customers.

Client satisfaction is at the heart of everything we do. But don’t just take it from us; check out some of the customer feedback we’ve received this year.

Maf McLaren, Supply Chain Manager at Wildanet in southwest England, acknowledges our high-quality service: “Over the years, Altnets has consistently delivered exceptional service to our organisation. As one of our primary suppliers, they have demonstrated a commendable commitment to meeting our needs with efficiency and professionalism. Their dedication to excellence is evident in their proactive approach to addressing any challenges that arise, ensuring that no request is perceived as too demanding. Altnets has proven to be a reliable and valuable partner, and we have full confidence in their ability to continue delivering outstanding service in the future.”

Nadine Tipping, Procurement Specialist at Fibrus in Northern Ireland, praises our proactive approach and expert knowledge, stating: “The team at Altnets are always responsive and go above and beyond to help with any issues that arise. They are willing to share their expert knowledge and experience of the industry – they always have time for a chat!”

Marvin Smith from Shetland Telecom says: “We have used Altnets for a number of years now as one of our main suppliers. They provide a very efficient customer-focused service and never fail to deliver when they say they will deliver. With the prices of goods going up all over the place in the last few years, it’s good to know that we can depend on Altnets to provide us with such a wide range of different items reliably and at a good price. They are our ‘go to’ supplier these days.”

Whether you’re an ISP looking to expand your network in a hard-to-reach area, improve service reliability, or navigate the evolving telecoms landscape, Altnets is here to help.
