Consolidated Communications Corporation, rooted in a tradition of community service, has been connecting North Dakota residents and businesses since its inception in 1961. Originally formed by the merger of Bowman-Slope Rural Telephone Mutual Aid Corporation and Dunn Telephone Mutual Aid Corporation, the company has grown significantly by expanding its service areas and offerings. Today, Consolidated Communications provides a comprehensive range of telecommunications services, including fiber-optic Internet, telephone services, and television broadcasting to numerous communities across southwestern North Dakota.
The company prides itself on maintaining a state-of-the-art network and is committed to ensuring that its customers have access to high-quality services comparable to those available in urban areas, all at affordable rates. This dedication to customer satisfaction stems from their core values, focusing on integrity, respect, and community involvement. As a cooperative, the organization is owned and governed by its customers, who benefit directly from its financial operations through shared profits, thus promoting a collective interest in improving local services.
Over the years, Consolidated has invested significantly in upgrading its infrastructure, achieving 100% fiber-to-the-home service in their cooperative exchanges. These efforts not only enhance service delivery but also support their mission to provide essential communication services to rural populations, who often face challenges in accessing telecommunications. With ongoing commitment, Consolidated Communications continues to adapt and grow, looking to seize new opportunities in the dynamic tech landscape while remaining dedicated to the local communities it serves.
