Mobile Telecommunications Limited (MTC) has partnered with the Tour and Safari Association of Namibia (TASA) to explore strategic collaboration aimed at bringing innovative solutions to the travel and tourism sector.
Through the collaboration, MTC will offer connectivity packages to tourists through the Hosea Kutako International Airport, which includes the leisure package for visitors staying less than 30 days, while the premium package provides up to 30 days of connectivity.
The development, the parties said, comes in the wake of recognising the constant demand for innovation, thus the need to work together and harness their resources for an improved user experience and sustainable tourism growth.
MTC’s Acting Chief Commercial Officer, Elton Katangolo, emphasised the importance of the tourism sector to Namibia’s economy while expressing the telecommunication company’s commitment to incubate and implement digital service transformation.
“These service offerings are specifically tailored to cost-effectively enhance tourists’ experience with efficiency and flexibility and to exude an essential travel companion for seamless communication on the journey. As you explore Namibia, we invite you to feel at home with MTC Leisure and MTC Premium. Whether you’re exploring the vibrant cities, scenic landscapes, or cultural wonders of Namibia, this bundle ensures you stay connected, entertained, and informed throughout your journey,” said Katangolo.
“The smart partnership is engraved in our make-up, and it excites me to essentially interrogate the opportunity to marry efforts between MTC and TASA, with the intent to design and offer digital and innovative solutions aimed at providing convenience for our consumers (tourists) who find themselves travelling to Namibia. We are, therefore, pleased with our engagement with TASA, and we are confident that together we will provide the desired value.”
TASA representative, Mureal van Rooyen, expressed excitement saying the smart partnership will enhance the benefits of the tourism industry.
“Amongst others, we are also excited with our maiden engagement with MTC as we look at the dynamics and viable avenues of creating and improving value for our members,” added van Rooyen.
