Quadriga Worldwide celebrates break-out year in Africa across its WiFi, IPTV and Sensiq solutions
Multiple property and brand signings provide Quadriga with the installed base to demonstrate its complete managed digital entertainment and connectivity service available in Africa.
ATP- arab tourism portal- In the past 12 months, Quadriga has secured a 600% increase in sales across North, West and East Africa. Major wins have included being selected as Accor’s exclusive WiFi provider for its entire 20,000 room African estate and Starwood’s WiFi provider in Egypt. Alongside these clients, Quadriga is also strengthening existing relationships with strategically important clients such as Mövenpick, Mandarin Oriental, Marriott, Hyatt, Hilton and Rezidor Hotel Group and will be well placed to support new clients and brands looking to establish themselves in the African territory.
In addition to an already extensive customer base, the newly formed Quadriga operational entity will soon be installing internet and network solutions as the essential backbone of the hotel infrastructure and the multimedia platform Sensiq with its streaming technology in strategic cities like Malabo, Nairobi, Kinshasa, N’Djamena and Accra.
Olivier Hennion, Managing Director Africa, with over 20 years experience in the hospitality industry, is responsible for the team and development of Quadriga’s business in Africa, headquartered in Casablanca, Morocco, with established dedicated resources in strategic countries such as Egypt, Ivory Coast, Senegal and Nigeria. Quadriga is the only international guest technology managed service provider with a proven ability to support the growing business requirements of the African hospitality industry and provide hotels with the same high level of service as the company is currently providing in cities such as New York, London and Dubai.
Olivier Hennion commented, “I originally joined Quadriga in 1995 and was subsequently appointed Head of Sales France before taking on various international roles and other challenges including establishing my own business in Africa. Since 2013, I’ve had the opportunity to lead and grow Quadriga’s business in Africa and I am confident that the magnificent results we have delivered this year will be surpassed in the next 12 months as we bring on board our new sales and operations recruits.”
Jean-Philippe Delouis, President & Managing Director EMEA commented, “Quadriga is now, more than ever before, uniquely positioned to meet the global technology needs of our customers and the local investors willing to invest in the African industry.” He continues, “I am proud to be strengthening our presence here to help bring exciting new hotel properties and technology to the African market.”
