June 9th 2015. York. Cellhire plc, the international mobile solutions specialist, has opened a new office in Sao Paulo – its first in Brazil – to capitalise on the expanding Brazilian market and build a platform to serve its global customer base for the Olympics that the country will host in 2016. The event will be used as a springboard to further establish the new office and gain a strong domestic foothold for business after the Olympics. Last year Cellhire, which is headquartered in York, delivered more than 14,000 connections at the FIFA World Cup as both business and media descended on Brazil for one of the biggest events in the world. Since then, the company has laid the appropriate foundations to maximise Brazil’s next big event in 2016 and capitalise on the growing Brazilian market. Cellhire will be offering voice and data connections, supporting live reporting from Rio to news desks around the world.
