RIDGELAND, Miss. (July 9, 2024) –

C Spire, a diversified telecommunications and technology services company, is rapidly expanding its 20,000 miles of fiber infrastructure and will soon offer multi-gigabit home fiber internet with speeds of up to 8 gigs to 20 neighborhoods in Grenada with more than 1,800 homes.

C Spire trucks and crews will be in Grenada neighborhoods starting this month. Fiber construction in the first three neighborhoods will be completed within the next three months.

"The continued expansion of fiber infrastructure is a priority for C Spire in Mississippi," said Toby DuBois, general manager of home services for C Spire. "Fiber internet provides residents with the connectivity they need for education, healthcare, and business. We are thrilled to offer reliable home internet to the residents of Grenada."

C Spire’s fiber is faster than the national average, has higher bandwidths, and is over 99.99 percent reliable. Residents of Grenada can check the availability of C Spire fiber in their area by visiting www.cspire.com/fiber.

“We are excited about C Spire’s fiber investment in our town,” said Matthew Harrison, CEO of the Greater Grenada Partnership. “The new fiber options in Grenada will significantly enhance our infrastructure, benefiting residents with remote work and learning opportunities while driving economic growth and development in our community.”

C Spire began offering wireless service in Grenada in 2002 and has had a retail store there since 2005. The company now provides fiber internet services to businesses and residents, and a full suite of products for businesses and government entities.
