Afrihost

With a dream of building a company that would delight clients with excellent service and amazing products, three best friends (Gian Visser, Brendan Armstrong and Peter Meintjies) joined forces to launch Afrihost- a Web Hosting and IT services company that reflects their personal values of service and products excellence. The company began by offering a variety of services like web design, web development and general computer support; ultimately however it ceases all other business avenues and focused exclusively on web hosting. Afrihost entered the Broadband market in September 2009 and offered R29 per GB. Afrihost grew and became one of the top 3 ADSL service providers in South Africa; in 2011 and 2012, it won the coveted MyBroadBand ISP of the Year award. In 2012, Afrihost joined forces with one of the biggest telecom networks on the African continent, MTN; this partnership, combined with the networking and business skills of the shareholders, promises a bright and prosperous future for Afrihost.
