2025-08-29

RIDGELAND, Miss. (August 29, 2025) – C Spire, a Mississippi-based advanced technology solutions company, is expanding its ultra-fast fiber internet to more than 2,000 residents’ homes across eight Tate County fiberhoods. This initiative aligns with C Spire’s commitment to enhancing lives through technology by delivering dependable, high-speed connectivity to empower residents.

“Fiber access opens doors to new possibilities for residents,” said Craig Jackson, senior vice president and general manager for Consumer Markets at C Spire. “It’s about giving families the solutions they need to succeed and helping communities stay competitive in today’s digital economy.”

Construction is expected to be completed within the next four months. Once complete, Tate County residents will have access to C Spire’s multi-gig speeds, which are 40 times faster than traditional internet, with over 99.99% reliability, and local 24/7 support.

“C Spire’s investment in expanding fiber infrastructure in our communities represents a forward-looking commitment to economic growth and quality of life,” said Anna Cardona, executive director of the Tate County Economic Development Foundation. “Reliable, high-speed internet is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity for education, business, healthcare, and everyday living. We are thrilled to see this kind of private-sector partnership helping to position Tate County for a more connected and prosperous future.”

C Spire began offering fiber service in Senatobia in 2024 and is now expanding to Tate County. The fiber launch follows recent expansions in neighboring DeSoto County, where C Spire was awarded grants for broadband expansion projects in 2024 through the DeSoto County Broadband Connectivity Program and the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA).

C Spire now offers fiber services to more than 160 communities across Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, and Tennessee and continues to invest in fiber infrastructure.
