Press release details

MONTREAL, Oct. 15, 2025 /CNW/ - Cogeco Communications Inc. (TSX: CCA) announced today a significant rollout of its mobile service, now offering mobility to the majority of its customers across Québec and Ontario in municipalities such as Niagara, Drummondville, Hamilton, Kingston, Shawinigan, Windsor and Burlington. Following the successful soft launch of Cogeco Mobile in 13 markets in July, this rapid expansion reinforces Cogeco's commitment to bring more choice, value, and simplicity to Canadian consumers.

"The first phase of our deployment exceeded our expectations and confirmed what we were hearing before: our customers also want to buy wireless from us. This doesn't surprise us. According to a recent Nanos survey¹, Canadians want real alternatives to the Big Three and believe that regional players are the solution to drive more competition," said Frédéric Perron, President and CEO. "We are proud to extend our service to hundreds of new communities."

Cogeco Mobile is accessible to new and existing Cogeco Internet subscribers at attractive prices, along with the peace of mind that comes with rollover data, no long-term contracts, no activation fees, and no surprise charges. Cogeco will finalize its rollout over the coming months further enhancing choice and value for Canadian consumers.
