EATEL Likely to Expand it Fiber Network with Vision Comm Buy

Source: The Deal Advisor

Boston-based BV Investment Partners announced last week that it will sell the former LaFourche Telephone Company to nearby EATEL. EATEL was one of the first ILECs in the U.S. with a 100% fiber network and given Vision Communications' relatively low broadband penetration, it appears the Gonzales, Louisiana-based buyer may be seeking to expand its reach.
