Wednesday, Iridium Communications Inc. (IRDM) said it has signed three additional distribution partners in Mexico. These three new partners supplement the distribution channel for the new "Iridium Mexico" subsidiary that the company announced on October 21, 2009. Iridium Mexico is a joint venture between Iridium and Spacenet Communications Services de Mexico SA de CV.
Iridium said its services are now available in Mexico through Spacenet, Astrum Comunicaciones, Intercomunicaciones Moviles Satelitales or INMOSAT, and Tecnologias de Control del Norte or TECNOR. All four Iridium partners, headquartered in Mexico, are actively engaged in the provision of voice and data satellite communications services, the company said.
"Today's announcement enhances our already solid partnership with Spacenet through Iridium Mexico. Spacenet, Astrum, Inmosat and Tecnor all have an intimate knowledge of the Mexican market and specialize in particular customers and services that require a high level of expertise. That, coupled with our ability to provide the world's only truly global MSS, provides an optimal communications solution in Mexico," said Matt Desch, Chief Executive Officer, Iridium.
