Quadriga Worldwide, a leading international provider of Internet and entertainment managed services are currently deploying their WiFi Cloud based solutions into AccorHotels’ brands throughout the African continent. After supplying the global hotel chain leader with guest entertainment and communication solutions for several years around the globe, Quadriga has established an effective organisation to support AccorHotels in its development in the region.

Fabrice Gaultier, Regional IT Director of AccorHotels for Africa commented, "Quadriga are currently showing AccorHotels their ability to look after our hotels in Africa with efficiency, by providing a true local support with skilled engineers available when needed. It is critical for AccorHotels to partner with companies that consider Africa as part of their development strategy like any other region in the world. This is the reason why we decided to work with them.’’

The local presence is second to none and is proof of efficiency and availability. They have exceeded our expectations.’’
Mireille Sahou, Regional IT for AccorHotels West Africa, confirms that Quadriga’s team have been very efficient.
