Orange Liberia Investment Strengthens Telecom Infrastructure in Liberia
Orange made a significant impact on the Liberian telecom market in 2016 through its acquisition of Cellcom. Since then, the French company has emerged as one of the leading operators in the country.
Between 2016 and July 2025, Orange Liberia invested over $250 million, primarily focusing on digital infrastructure, financial inclusion, and technology education. This investment further solidified Orange Liberia’s position in the West African nation.
During the 2025 Liberia Technology Summit, the company disclosed its substantial financial commitment, illustrating its dedication to driving innovation and development in Liberia.
Stressing their commitment to Liberia’s progress, Zayzay Mulbah, speaking on behalf of CEO Jean Marius Yao, emphasized their active role in building a digital nation that promotes inclusive growth.
Building on their previous initiatives, Orange announced a $200 million investment plan to enhance network coverage and service quality, especially in rural areas lacking adequate infrastructure.
In line with their focus on financial inclusion, Orange pledged its support to government initiatives through the Orange Money service, facilitating the digitization of payments across various sectors of the economy in Liberia.
Orange Money Liberia also forged strategic partnerships, including collaboration with the Central Bank of Liberia, aiming to contribute significantly to the country’s financial inclusion strategies, as outlined in their 2024 Corporate Social Responsibility report.
