Mexico demands telecommunications towers

In Mexico, management projects for more than 4,900 telecommunications towers are needed annually to meet demand, according to the Canadian company Tower One Wireless Corp.

This company noted that mobile network operators (MNOs) are planning to spend approximately C $ 14 billion from 2016 to 2020 on capital expenditures, considering GSMA projections.

Mexico has a population of 125 million and a GDP per capita of $ 25,350. There were 30,349 towers in Mexico as of October 2018 with approximately 3,535 subscribers per cell site, according to TowerXchange.

The main mobile network operators include Altan Redes, AT&T México, Telcel and Telefónica.

Altan, AT&T and Telefónica represent more than 30% of the market and are clients of Tower One Wireless Corp.

This company believes other drivers of demand for future cell sites include a recent auction for high-profile spectrum, a nationwide wholesale wireless broadband initiative by Altan, and increased consumption of mobile data.

Tower One Wireless Corp. is a multi-tenant communications real estate custom build (BTS) tower owner, operator and developer.
