Founded in 1970, Omantel has grown to become a leading provider of integrated telecommunications in the Gulf Co-operation Council (GCC) region, committed to helping the digital society flourish. In 2021 the company is helping businesses take the next leap – with the introduction of a 5G mobile network to customers in Oman.
