HOSTAFRICA continues its strategic expansion in Kenya with the acquisition of deepAfrica’s domains and hosting assets. This marks HOSTAFRICA’s fourth major acquisition in Kenya, enhancing its capabilities and presence in the rapidly growing local market. The assets, including customer bases from hostpoa.co.ke and Jijihost.com, will be seamlessly integrated into HOSTAFRICA’s operations.
Founded in May 2004, deepAfrica has established itself as a reputable web host. This acquisition will allow HOSTAFRICA to expand its existing Nairobi office and provide improved services to its customers. Michael Osterloh, CEO of HOSTAFRICA, expressed enthusiasm for the acquisition, stating, “This move underscores our commitment to expanding our footprint across Africa. deepAfrica’s strong reputation and assets will enhance our service offerings and market presence. We commend George Nyaswenta and his team for building a competitive hosting business and welcome deepAfrica into the HOSTAFRICA family.”
This acquisition is part of HOSTAFRICA’s strategy to consolidate the fragmented hosting market through strategic acquisitions. This approach has extended its reach while maintaining a high level of customer support, earning the trust of thousands across Africa.
George Nyaswenta, owner of deepAfrica, commented, “Joining HOSTAFRICA marks an exciting new chapter for our company and customers. Their extensive resources and commitment to high standards are a win for our clients. We are confident in a smooth transition, beneficial for all parties involved.”
Post-acquisition, deepAfrica will continue to operate its construction and web design businesses, while its hosting assets, hostpoa.co.ke and Jijihost.com, will rebrand to HOSTAFRICA. Clients of deepAfrica can expect seamless integration and continued high-quality service under HOSTAFRICA.
This acquisition further solidifies HOSTAFRICA’s commitment to excellence in the African hosting market. With the African startup ecosystem experiencing significant growth, this move positions HOSTAFRICA to meet the diverse needs of hosting businesses across the continent. HOSTAFRICA’s pioneering spirit and strategic investments continue to set new benchmarks in the industry, providing exceptional technology and service as Africa’s digital landscape evolves.
