29th May 1989 – Emtel Ltd became the first mobile telephony operation in the whole Southern Hemisphere. This major step in Mauritian telecommunications history was the fruit of the collaboration of two pioneering groups – The Currimjee Jeewanjee Group, one of the foremost groups in Mauritius, and Millicom International Cellular (MIC) S.A.,based in Luxembourg. During these 20 years, Emtel has managed to sustain this innovation drive and still today, the Emtel brand itself is the synonym of technology, innovation and high quality.
