VIGAN CITY -- Converge ICT Solutions Inc. launched its flagship Vigan business center in Rizal Street, Barangay VII which will serve not only Vigan City but also nearby areas in Ilocos Sur, making fiber availability an all-time high in the region.

Converge has rolled out close to 400,000 fiber ports in Region I. Converge CEO Dennis Anthony Uy said that in terms of fiber penetration of Ilocos Region, the company has covered these areas down to the barangay level so it has very high service availability there.  “We are now identifying which areas have high demand for fiber for additional port rollouts,” he added.

Uy went on that Converge is available in smaller municipalities in Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, La Union and Pangasinan, with presence particularly strong in Pangasinan with fiber ports nearing 200,000 in the province. This is part of the company’s “Go Deep and Go National strategy.

“The opening of the Vigan Business Center validates our promise that as we continue to grow, we remain steadfast in our commitment to our customers because their satisfaction is at the heart of everything we do as an organization, so we must ensure that they get the best possible experience. Our business center is here so that we will be able to address the needs of our customers, from application, to payment to after-sales services,” Converge Chief Operations Officer, Jesus Romero said.

Converge also has business centers located in Laoag, Ilocos Norte and Candon, Ilocos Sur. It also has four business centers in Pangasinan in Urdaneta, Dagupan, San Carlos and Alaminos and three in La Union in Agoo, San Fernando and Bangar.

According to its officials, the expansion of Converge in North Luzon is in support of President Marcos’ call for universal connectivity in the country. President Marcos pushed for the use of all means of digital transport in order to establish inter-island digital connectivity may it be terrestrial, submarine fiber optics, wireless, or satellite technology.
