FastWyre in the Fast Lane

SHARE THIS ARTICLE

Fastwyre Broadband is a new name and logo for a group of established broadband and internet service providers. Its mission is to deliver affordable, reliable, high-speed internet services to small cities and towns in the markets it operates.

Fastwyre Broadband, headquartered in Sulphur, LA, consolidates, under a single national brand, former American Broadband Holding Company operating brands. These entities include American Broadband Nebraska/Missouri, TelAlaska based in Anchorage, AK, and Cameron Communications, also based in Sulphur, LA, which covers southwest and central Louisiana and parts of southeast Texas. The amalgamated company provides broadband, telephone, and video services to customers in Alaska, Louisiana, Missouri, Nebraska, and Texas. 

Fastwyre Broadband partners with its communities by providing broadband and other advanced services that support new business activity and job growth. The new organization expects synergies achieved under the Fastwyre Broadband name will result in building out fiber to homes and businesses so customers can take advantage of expanding broadband applications. 

“We are excited about our new name – Fastwyre – because it reflects our commitment to providing communities across the country with the fastest, most reliable and affordable communications network for work, play and life,” said Chris Eldredge, CEO of Fastwyre Broadband. “We believe all Americans should have access to reliable internet service. Our new identity reflects our pursuit of that mission, unifying our markets under a single national brand that will help keep communities connected.”

Responding to the need for high-speed internet access and infrastructure upgrades in communities across the country, Fastwyre Broadband believes its new brand identity reinforces its organizational values including commitment to the communities in which it operates, straightforward pricing, and best-in-class customer service.

Fastwyre Broadband is a portfolio company of Madison Dearborn Partners, a private equity firm based in Chicago, and Catania Capital Partners. The two investment firms acquired American Broadband Holding Company in December 2020.
