SISTEC

What SISTEC does

SISTEC S.A. (Sistemas Tecnologias e Indústria), founded in 1991 and headquartered at Avenida Che Guevara nº 138 in Luanda's Bairro Maculusso, is a privately held Angolan technology group operating across three divisions. SISTEC Corporate delivers customized enterprise technology projects - consulting, maintenance, support, training, managed services, electronic security, and operational leasing - backed by ISO 9001:2015 certification and partnerships with IBM (Silver), Oracle (Gold), Lenovo (Platinum), Microsoft, VMware, and Cisco. SISTEC Lojas is the retail arm, distributing consumer electronics, IT hardware, and home appliances through physical stores and an online storefront (loja.sistec.co.ao), with manufacturer relationships across Samsung, Sony, LG, Apple, ASUS, Philips, Hisense, and Tefal. SISTEC Energias provides consulting, design, and implementation of solar, wind, and hydroelectric systems for residential, commercial, and industrial clients, with a dedicated Clean and Renewable Energy showroom launched in 2022.

Underpinning these divisions is a proprietary technical platform: a VSAT satellite communications hub (Gilat C-band technology) with over 200 active terminals across all 18 provinces of Angola; a national UHF telecommunications network with 168 repeaters; SISTEC Cloud datacenter services launched in 2018 (SISTEC was the first global Service Provider to test the Al Yah 3 satellite); Connected by OneWeb LEO satellite internet; electronic security services (since 2016/2017); and a 24/7 ISO 9001:2015 certified Call Center supported by a 55,000 m2 logistics base at Kikuxi (Viana) operational since 2015. A Centro de Formação delivers ongoing professional training in computing, databases, management, and English.

Revenue is generated through three engines: B2B professional services and project-based enterprise solutions (Corporate), consumer and SMB hardware sales via physical and online retail (Lojas), and managed renewable energy deployments (Energias). The primary customer base skews toward Angolan banks (BNA, BAI, BPC, BCI, SOL, BDA, Standard Bank, Millennium Atlantic, Banco Valor, BCT, MULTICAIXA), central government and the Vice-Presidency, oil and gas (Sonangol), telecommunications (UNITEL), and walk-in retail consumers, with a field sales team and dedicated fleet providing nationwide coverage. The company was recognized as the first African IBM PURE FLEX certified partner in 2013 and the IBM best mid-market services partner in MEA in 2016/2017, and has held the Superbrands Angola distinction across multiple years.

Scale indicators6 records

Recent moves13 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Emerging players

• Raxio Data Centres: Raxio operates carrier-neutral data centers across several African markets; comparable to SISTEC Cloud as a regional data-center/cloud peer but lacking SISTEC's national satellite and retail distribution footprint.

Direct peers

• MSTelcom (Multitel): MSTelcom is an Angolan enterprise IT and telecommunications services company that, like SISTEC, provides IT integration, network, and managed services to corporates and government in Angola — making it the closest head-to-head domestic peer.
• Paratus Group: Paratus is a pan-African satellite and managed-connectivity provider headquartered in Namibia, operating its own VSAT/LEO infrastructure across multiple African countries — directly comparable to SISTEC's VSAT-Hub-based satellite communications business.

Regional players

• Globacom / Glo Angola: Globacom operates as a mobile and enterprise telecom carrier active in Angola, providing voice, data, and enterprise connectivity — comparable to SISTEC Corporate's telecom and managed-services offerings but primarily as a carrier rather than integrator.
• Africa Online: Africa Online is a satellite and fixed-connectivity ISP operating across multiple African countries — comparable to SISTEC's VSAT and satellite-internet services but at smaller scale and across different national footprints.
• MainOne / Equinix West Africa: MainOne (now part of Equinix) operates subsea cable, fiber and data center infrastructure in West Africa, including an undersea link to Angola; it competes with SISTEC in the connectivity and datacenter space but primarily outside of SISTEC's Angolan core.
• TVCabo Angola: TVCabo Angola is the dominant Angolan cable TV and broadband ISP — comparable to SISTEC in the Angolan residential/SMB connectivity market and partly overlapping with SISTEC Lojas' consumer-tech retail customer base.

Broad incumbents

• Seacom: Seacom is a pan-African subsea cable and connectivity provider offering wholesale capacity, IP transit and managed enterprise services across Africa — comparable to SISTEC's corporate telecom and data-network services but focused on wholesale/long-haul rather than national integration.
• Liquid Intelligent Technologies: Liquid operates a pan-African fiber and satellite network plus enterprise managed services and cloud across dozens of African markets — comparable to SISTEC in enterprise IT integration and managed connectivity, but at broader geographic and category scale.
• Angola Telecom: Angola Telecom is the state-owned incumbent telco providing fixed-line, mobile and data services across Angola; comparable as a domestic telecom and connectivity peer but with much broader, state-backed scope than SISTEC's enterprise focus.
