  • Pantel the WINNER of Capacity Awards - Best CEE Carrier 2011
    • capcity awards 2011
    Pantel was chosen to be the BEST CEE Carrier for 2011 at the Capacity Magazine Awards Ceremony at Capacity's European Telecom Conference in Amsterdam, on Tuesday, the 22nd of November 2011.  This award acknowledges Pantel's commitment to exceeding expectations in this competitive industry.

    There are some quotes below from some of the jury members about why Pantel was selected for winner of the Best CEE Wholesale offering: 

    "Pantel is interesting because it takes in not only the obvious commercial centres in its region, but some more unusual ones too – such as Kosovo and Macedonia. Pantel really does seem to wants a presence in every economy between Eastern Europe and Turkey, and it is not afraid of investing in a troubled region like the Balkans."

    "A broad network from Turkey to the UK, including investments throughout the Balkans as well as those countries either in the EU or on the threshold of membership, shows a company which knows where their clients need to communicate and which has an eye on future growth. We particularly liked the company's philosophy on customer experience management based on employee involvement."

    Pantel is very proud to be the winner of this award and as a market leader will continue support the industry with its creative telecommunication and business development solutions and ideas.         Photos from the Award Ceremony
