"The main factors for steadily improving financial results are the group's efficiency and quality services. The largest increase in the number of clients was registered for television services, which demonstrates that our clients have a high opinion of our television content and functionality of our television services, as well as loyalty toward the company," CEO of Lattelecom Juris Gulbis emphasizes.

 

Lattelecom offers electronic communication solutions for households, smalll and medium enterprises, state and municipal institutions and corporate clients.
