In addition, Dobson Fiber has grown into a regional provider of fiber internet and phone systems for businesses and homes throughout Oklahoma, and parts of Texas and Arkansas.
Throughout its 85 year history, The Dobson Companies have stayed on the cutting edge of the telecommunications industry, owning a large wireless operation from 1990 to 2007. Everett Dobson, who represents the third generation of the Dobson family provides leadership as Executive Chairman of the Dobson Fiber companies.
“This is an incredible milestone for any company. It has been a true honor to be a part of an organization that my grandfather began in 1936 and watching it grow into the state-of-the-art regional fiber provider it is today,” said Dobson. “The Dobson family has always believed in providing the best technology to the communities it serves. We have come full circle in doing just that with our announcement last week of launching fiber to the home internet in Weatherford, Oklahoma. In addition, our number of addressable business buildings eligible for fiber-based voice and data services has now surpassed 38,000.”
