This enhances our services in all regions and expands our customer service network in major cities and suburbs, consequently easing congestion at our alfa store branches.” He added: “This allows us to serve our subscribers better, especially that cell phones have become an essential part of our everyday life, and hence it has become more necessary for us to closely keep up with subscribers’ needs and cater to them”.
