C Spire has signed an agreement to acquire Troy Cablevision, which will enable C Spire to meet the growing broadband access and information technology needs of consumers and businesses in Alabama's Wiregrass. 

The transaction includes Union Springs Telephone Company. This move accelerates C Spire's fiber-based expansion throughout Alabama to provide ultra-fast broadband internet access and related services.

 

C Spire CEO, Hu Meena, said his firm intends to make a seamless transition for Troy Cablevision customers and noted the acquisition is not expected to result in any layoffs, given C Spire's goal of growing within the region.

Troy Cablevision founded in 1985, provides cable TV, internet, fiber broadband, and other services to business and residential customers in Pike, Coffee, Crenshaw, and Dale counties. The company is headquartered in Troy but also has regional offices in Elba, Enterprise, Luverne and Ozark.

Hu Meena, CEO, C Spire
Following up on our previously announced commitment to invest approximately $500 million in fiber based network deployment and enhancements throughout Alabama, we are extremely excited to deepen our Alabama roots with this transaction by providing services to the Wiregrass.

Jake Cowen, CFO and GM of Troy Cablevision
Becoming a part of the C Spire family will allow us to provide further enhanced services to our customers. We will remain committed to offering the same hometown service, but with even better technological capabilities to improve quality and variety of services.
