MTN Uganda Limited is a Ugandan telecommunications operator with the strategic intent of providing telecommunications and digital solutions for Uganda’s progress. Inspired by the belief that everyone deserves the benefits of a modern connected life, MTN has grown to a subscriber base of approximately 19 million customers.

MTN was incorporated on 21 October 1998, with the objective to operate as a second national operator of a telecommunications network at a time when mobile cellular service penetration in Uganda was at a low of 0.27%. The company has since contributed to the growth of the telecommunications sector in Uganda with current penetration being at 70% (seven lines for every ten individuals).
