- Bulsho Fiber Link specialises in fibre optic infrastructure and last-mile connectivity solutions across Kenya
- The company operates in a competitive market facing challenges like high deployment costs and fibre vandalism
Connecting Kenya’s digital future
Bulsho Fiber Link Limited has rapidly grown from a regional provider to a national contender in Kenya’s fibre optic sector. The company’s focus on both infrastructure development and last-mile connectivity solutions positions it uniquely in a market where demand for reliable broadband continues to surge. According to its LinkedIn profile, the company has been actively expanding its network footprint, particularly in counties with underserved business communities.
Kenya’s fibre optic landscape presents both opportunities and obstacles for growing providers like Bulsho Fiber Link. While the Communications Authority reports over 11,000km of terrestrial fibre nationwide, penetration remains uneven, with urban areas accounting for 78% of connections. This imbalance creates strategic openings for providers willing to invest in secondary cities and peri-urban regions where competition is less intense but demand keeps growing.

Bulsho Fiber Link’s approach to market challenges
The company addresses industry hurdles through a combination of technical innovation and strategic partnerships. By adopting cost-effective deployment methods like micro-trenching, Bulsho Fiber Link has reduced infrastructure costs by an estimated 30-40% compared to traditional methods, according to industry benchmarks. This approach proves particularly valuable when expanding into lower-density areas where conventional fibre rollout would be economically unviable.
Beyond infrastructure, Bulsho Fiber Link is navigating Kenya’s challenging operating environment through smart monitoring systems and community engagement programs. These initiatives aim to reduce the $3 million annual losses the sector suffers from fibre vandalism. The company’s growing involvement in county government partnerships also positions it well to benefit from Kenya’s plan to connect all 47 counties to fibre backbones by 2025, creating new opportunities in public sector connectivity.
