“Hanover County is pleased to welcome Glo Fiber to our community,” said John A. Budesky, Hanover County Administrator. “This company has demonstrated a strong interest and commitment to high levels of customer service and support. Glo Fiber’s plans to expand their fiber network are also consistent with our Connect Hanover initiative and efforts to get the entire county covered in the next 36 months. Their high-quality internet service will provide additional options to our residents and support our overall goal of universal broadband to all of our residents.”
Matt Reynal, Assistant Town Manager of Ashland said, “We have witnessed how important broadband service is for every household over the last few years so we’re excited to welcome Glo Fiber to, as what we like to call, the Center of the Universe. Fiber services will provide Ashland residents with a diversity of options to access the internet and connect with the world.”
Glo Fiber provides unlimited multi-gigabit internet access with symmetrical upload and download speeds, streaming TV, and phone services in the Mid-Atlantic region. Using Shentel’s 7,900-mile regional fiber network, Glo Fiber can ensure high speeds, low latency, and fair pricing. The company has earned a reputation for providing superior local customer service across its markets, including the growing list of communities in Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, and Delaware.
“Greater Richmond is growing exponentially and we are proud to partner with both Ashland and Hanover County to assist in this growth with our fiber-to-the-home service,” said Chris Kyle, Vice President of Regulatory & Industry Affairs at Shentel. “Providing citizens with a competitive, all-fiber choice for their internet, TV, and phone will help them more easily work, learn, and play – and do so more reliably. This will also provide the municipalities with a strong economic development bargaining chip when discussing why companies and people should relocate to the area.”
