UK ISP, Giganet is expanding business opportunities in the channel market with the introduction of a number of new FTTP and Ethernet offerings, thanks to its new Channel Partner Programme. 

The move follows a £250 million-pound investment in the ISP from Fern Trading last year, and a number of initiatives including a multi-year agreement with global supply chain solutions provider, Anixter to support the expansion of full fibre, and investment in training and development. The ISP was also one of a number to commit to helping customers during the cost-of-living crisis by freezing prices for consumers in 2022.

The launch of the Channel Partner Programme will see the ISP combine the power of its own infrastructure, CityFibre and Openreach, to generate a wave of new Business FTTP and Ethernet products for the channel market, which the company says will offer exciting business opportunities for Telecoms resellers, MSPs and ISPs.

Paul North, head of channel at Giganet, explained: ‘One of the best things about being a nimble provider means we’re not held back by legacy revenues, systems, or technology.

Giganet won’t be offering any copper-based services, we’re full fibre all the way and so we’re leading with a bold partner programme that’s focused on the rapidly expanding FTTP opportunity. It’s no secret that our vision is to become the best ISP in the UK, we’re here to disrupt the industry. We make it our mission to make broadband easier for our customers, and we extend that ethos to our partners by giving them the ability to utilise these powerful infrastructures. Our initial product is a Business FTTP proposition over the CityFibre and Openreach networks, designed for the SME market, and we can’t wait to get going.’

Giganet said that it will add more products and services to its portfolio in due course.
