Alcadon signs 5-year framework agreement with Fiberklaar in Belgium
Alcadon, through its Belgian subsidiary, Alcadon B.V, has signed a 5-year framework agreement with Fiberklaar, a network operator rolling out FTTH (Fiber-To-The-Home) in the Flanders region of Belgium, for the supply of fiber optic material in FTTH deployment. With the help of construction partners Fiberklaar has started to build an open optical fiber network for public telecommunications services in Flanders and aims to connect 1,500,000 households and small businesses before the end of 2028. Volumes under the framework agreement are approximately EUR 16 million until 2027. Material purchases require separate agreements to be signed directly with subcontractors. The projects are mainly expected to start in 2024 and will involve some inventory build-up in 2023.
“The process of our European expansion started with the acquisition of 6X International in Denmark and have proven successful. Entering the Benelux market has been a strategic priority for Alcadon Group and a market of great interest within our industry. We thank Fiberklaar for placing their trust in us.”
