Quebec, Canada / TheNewswire / October 23, 2018 – NuRAN Wireless Inc. (“NuRAN Wireless” or the “Company”) (CSE: NUR) (OTC: NRRWF) (FSE: 1RN), announces that it has received an initial purchase order from from Africa Mobile Networks (“AMN”).

The agreement with AMN is for the  supply of OC-2G units in a minimum of five (5) countries and up to 3,000 sites based on commercial and operational success.

Martin Bedard, CEO of NuRAN Wireless stated: “I would like to thank the Operations Team on helping the Company achieve this important milestone as it is just the start for us.” Mr. Bedard continued: “With this initial order and the building blocks of the relationship with AMN cemented, NuRAN has visibility on 300 million mobile subscribers in Sub-Saharan Africa which we will be striving to connect as many as possible. This is one enormous step in the direction of our corporate vision of connecting the next billion.”
