Converge ICT Solutions Inc. (PSE:CNVRG), the leading provider of fiber broadband in the Philippines, has solidified its partnership with LBC Express Incorporated, the country’s premier courier service, in an agreement aimed at further empowering LBC’s nationwide expansion through enhanced fiber connectivity.
The collaboration between LBC and Converge commenced in 2015, initially establishing Converge’s provision of fiber broadband connectivity to LBC’s central office and primary hub. Impressed by the quality of service and the advantages of fiber-powered operations, LBC expanded its collaboration with Converge, extending connectivity to its additional warehouses and branches. Presently, Converge supports almost 40% of LBC’s 1500+ branches nationwide.
“LBC has enjoyed a longstanding partnership with Converge, leveraging their reliable, full-fiber connectivity to expand our network. Witnessing Converge’s extensive growth across the Philippines while maintaining exceptional customer support has been gratifying,” expressed Alexander Francis Deato, Senior Vice President and Chief Information Officer at LBC Express Inc. “We anticipate their ongoing progress to continue serving Filipinos in both urban and remote regions.”
This reinvigorated alliance aims to address LBC’s escalating demand for rapid, secure, and dependable connectivity, crucial for supporting its transport, logistics, and remittance services as it amplifies operations. With Converge’s expanding pure fiber coverage and robust network infrastructure, LBC intends to capitalize on this advancement to reach previously underserved areas.
“Converge and LBC’s enduring alliance stems from a shared commitment to serve Filipinos worldwide, especially those in underserved regions. We are honored to be the chosen connectivity partner for a prestigious transport and logistics institution like LBC,” affirmed Jesus C. Romero, Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Operations Officer at Converge. “Our dedication remains steadfast in digitally transforming their operations, enhancing their competitive edge and customer service as their enterprise continues to thrive.”
The renewal of this longstanding agreement was formalized through a contract signing event held at LBC Express Inc.’s headquarters in Pasay City.
