Rain has proposed a merger with Telkom, saying that it would create a 5G powerhouse to compete with Vodacom and MTN.

Rain has formally requested to present the Telkom board with a proposal to merge the two companies.

It said there is a strong business case for a Telkom-Rain merger and that it offers a more pro-competitive alternative than“Some consolidation in the industry is both desirable and inevitable as it leads to better utilisation of infrastructure,” Rain stated. Its network covers over 6 million homes, and Rain said it has one of the largest Stand Alone 5G networks globally.

Rain CEO Brandon Leigh said they had seen substantial growth and acknowledged that this caused early customer service teething problems.
