End of Quarter Sale - 50% Off TipRanks

The latest update is out from Akanda Corp ( (AKAN) ).

On March 26, 2026, Akanda Corp. announced that First Towers & Fiber Corp. expanded its dark fiber network in Central Mexico by about 200 kilometres, bringing total coverage to roughly 900 kilometres. The new 48‑strand fiber segment is backed by a long-term Indefeasible Right of Use agreement expected to generate about $2 million in contracted cash flow over 10 years from existing enterprise customers.

Management says the additional fiber strengthens FTF’s presence in the high-growth Bajío industrial region, enhances network density and resiliency, and provides a scalable backbone with low incremental operating costs. The deal marks the first in a pipeline of targeted acquisitions aimed at consolidating premium fiber assets across Mexico, supporting Akanda’s push to build a high-margin, cash-flow-generating digital infrastructure platform and increasing its appeal to strategic partners seeking exposure to Latin American connectivity growth.
