ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Oct. 3, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- WOW! Internet, TV & Phone (NYSE: WOW), a
leading broadband services provider, today announced plans to
further expand its footprint in communities along Florida's west central coast. Construction
will begin in the coming months to bring WOW!'s fast, reliable,
all-IP fiber network to Hernando
County. The company plans to add 44,000 new homes to its
growing subscriber base, bringing the total number of identified
homes in its Greenfield expansion efforts to 389,000. Florida, now ranked the nation's
fastest-growing state for the first time since 1957, continues to
be an area of focus for WOW!.
The company's expansion into Hernando
County follows the unveiling of WOW!'s plans to build its
state-of-the-art fiber network in Michigan and Minnesota, bringing the company nearer to its
overall goal of reaching 400,000 homes passed in new markets by
2027 and expanding its footprint by 21%. WOW! has already made
significant progress in its previously identified Greenfield
markets, including Orange and
Seminole counties in Central Florida, where services are launching
across multiple communities, and Greenville County, South Carolina, where
construction is well underway and services are nearing launch.
WOW! has begun preliminary work in Spring Hill and Hernando Beach to bring its state-of-the-art
services and unparalleled customer experience to residents and
businesses requiring more flexible and reliable broadband access.
Florida is a key market for WOW!
where customers in Pinellas
County, Panama City,
Altamonte Springs, and Wekiwa
Springs currently benefit from its services, and the company has
been honored as a Best Company to Work For in Florida.
"We're pleased with our progress toward meeting our Greenfield
expansion goals as we close in on identifying the new service areas
that will bring us to our milestone of 400,000 new homes passed by
2027," said Teresa Elder, CEO of
WOW!. "We look forward to growing our presence in Florida and delighting even more customers
with our innovative suite of services, community involvement and
dedicated customer service."
At launch, residents and businesses in Hernando County will experience WOW!'s
all-fiber network and can subscribe to fiber services, including
residential symmetrical Internet speeds up to 5 Gbps. WOW! will
also offer YouTube TV, one of the most popular and robust live TV
video services available with NFL Sunday Ticket, now exclusively
offered by YouTube and YouTube TV, along with interactive features
such as the ability to catch up with key plays, multiview, check
