PROFILE |
 |
When Sammy Sosa hits a home run, TRICOM's lines light up. The company provides telecom services in Sosa's homeland, the Dominican Republic, and Sosa is their pitchman. TRICOM has been scoring on former monopoly Codetel: it operates all-digital cellular and wireless local loop networks using CDMA (code division multiple access) technology. It owns its own submarine fiber-optic cable systems and leases capacity from Global Crossing to expand its services. It also has also teamed with ITXC and Net2Phone to provide Internet telephony. In the US, the facilities-based international carrier pitches long-distance to Dominicans calling home. Dominican Republic holding company GFN owns 46% of TRICOM; Motorola owns 31%.
