Chinese telecom equipment maker ZTE has announced that its South African subsidiary has won a three-year $378m contract from mobile operator Cell C and its controlling shareholder Oger Telecom.

Under the network supply and managed services deal, ZTE Corporation South Africa will provide GSM/UMTS network turn-key solutions and operations services to Cell C. It will also provide product sales and engineering services.

In December, Cell C chief executive Lars Reichelt announced the company's plans to invest ZAR 5 billion ($667m) on network expansion to bolster its internet offerings. Cell C's rival MTN also announced ZAR 7.5 billion ($1 billion) network investment last year.

Last month, the E-Plus Group and KPN Group Belgium selected ZTE to supply HSPA-enabled 3G equipment for further expansion and technical upgrade of their mobile networks.
