A Solution to local internet challenges

We listened to our customers who faced challenges with slow speeds when accessing content from overseas servers.

Seedy Omar Bensouda, CEO of INET

Seedy Omar Bensouda, CEO of INET, shares that the inspiration for INET TV came from understanding the frustrations of local customers who struggled with slow internet speeds while accessing content from foreign servers. Many users had turned to set-top boxes to download content, often from semi-illegal sources, only to face slow speeds due to the limitations of these servers.

“We listened to our customers who faced challenges with slow speeds when accessing content from overseas servers,” Bensouda explains. “By relocating servers locally and partnering with international content providers, we’re able to offer high-speed, reliable access to a broad range of TV channels right here in The Gambia.”

Affordable and flexible pricing

INET TV is designed to cater to diverse viewing preferences at competitive prices. The full content package, including sports, English Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, and various movies and sports channels, is available for approximately $19.50. For those interested solely in sports or a mix of movies, cartoons, documentaries, and international news, each package is priced at around $11.50.

The launch of INET TV is a testament to INET’s commitment to addressing local challenges and enhancing the overall internet experience. By owning its infrastructure, INET ensures high performance and reliability, setting a high standard in the industry.
