One of Cogeco Peer 1’s main strengths is its worldwide infrastructure, which adapts to provide local services according to each client’s specific needs. This is how the firm can expand its services to Mexico so quickly, though the company has announced it will also soon open facilities in the country to reinforce its operations there.

Cogeco Peer 1’s high-level customer service is reflected in its First Call promise, which promises that a single call is more than enough to escalate the request and begin a rigorous process ending in a helpful and valuable response. This is just one of the ways Cogeco Peer 1 differentiates itself from its competitors.
