Prizz Telecom

What Prizz Telecom does

Prizz Telecom is a private French fiber optic infrastructure operator founded in 2021 and headquartered in Fouilloy, France. The company designs, deploys, maintains, and operates very high-speed fiber optic networks built on a next-generation 100G MPLS core capable of delivering up to 10G of bandwidth to end customers. Its portfolio spans activated networks, passive network infrastructure leasing, dedicated Fiber-to-the-Office (FTTO) services for enterprises, complementary Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) residential offerings, and specialized event-venue connectivity for exhibitions and temporary installations.

The company addresses three principal customer segments in parallel: (1) service operators and telecom ISPs, which lease Pritz infrastructure to deliver connectivity to their own end customers; (2) enterprise and business customers, including high-tech firms, industrial sites, healthcare facilities, educational institutions, museums, ESNs, and very small to medium enterprises (TPME); and (3) local authorities and collectivities procuring infrastructure for digital services across territories.

Prizz pursues an enterprise-field-sales go-to-market for direct customers, complemented by a wholesale operator channel through 32+ telecom partners — including tier-1 operators Orange and SFR and a long tail of regional ISPs such as Alsatis, Hexanet, Netalis, and wifirst. Revenue is generated via subscription/recurring enterprise connectivity fees and managed-services/wholesale infrastructure contracts. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company is backed by unnamed "reference shareholders" who provide capital for an expanding physical footprint that already covers more than 50% of metropolitan France's GDP (per Infra-Corp 2024) and reaches over 3 million establishments eligible for FTTO offers. In 2024, Prizz joined the ACT Pas à Pas initiative led by InfraNum (with Ademe support and Ekho consulting) to establish measurable low-carbon trajectories for digital infrastructure.

Scale indicators3 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• TDF: Established French digital infrastructure operator with towers and fiber assets serving broadcasters, mobile operators, and enterprises. Comparable as an infrastructure-as-a-service incumbent, though fiber represents a smaller share of TDF's footprint than for Prizz.
• Orange Wholesale: Wholesale division of France's incumbent operator Orange - both Prizz's largest customer and a competitor owning extensive FTTH/FTTO assets. Comparable in fiber operating capability but at materially larger scale and across all customer types.
• SFR / Altice France: Major French fiber operator and Prizz customer that also operates competing FTTO/FTTH infrastructure through XpFibre. Similar fiber network operating role to Prizz but at much greater scale and broader service scope.
• Iliad / Free: Major French FTTH operator (parent of Free) with the country's largest alternative fiber network. Comparable as a fiber operating counterpart but at significantly larger scale and predominantly retail-focused.
• Bouygues Telecom: Major French telecom operator with significant fiber infrastructure and parent of Axione. Competes with Prizz both as a network owner and indirectly via its Axione subsidiary, providing similar B2B and wholesale fiber services.

Direct peers

• Kosc Telecom: French wholesale-only B2B telecom operator providing fiber and enterprise connectivity to operators and resellers. Overlaps directly with Prizz's wholesale-active-network and enterprise FTTO value proposition.
• Covage: French wholesale fiber infrastructure operator serving public initiative networks and operators with FTTH/FTTO deployments. Operates the same wholesale-active-network-plus-passive-fiber business model as Prizz.
• Altitude Infra: French wholesale fiber infrastructure operator deploying FTTH/FTTO across under-served territories for telecom operators and public initiative networks. Closely comparable to Prizz's wholesale-only active-plus-passive fiber model serving operators and collectivities in France.
• Axione: French wholesale fiber infrastructure operator (Bouygues Construction subsidiary) designing, deploying, and operating FTTH/FTTO networks for operators and RIP. Directly comparable to Prizz in customer base, technology stack, and operating model.
• Hub One: French B2B telecom operator providing dedicated fiber, SD-WAN, and managed connectivity to enterprises and verticals including airports and healthcare. Comparable to Prizz's enterprise FTTO and vertical-segment focus.
