Telecommunications Resellers in the UK - Industry Research Report

Losing signal: Intensified competition and the cost-of-living crisis are constraining profit in 2022-23

Telecommunications resellers benefit from wired and wireless services at a fairly low cost as they don't own any infrastructure put pay fees to carriers for indirect access to their networks. Resellers tend to target their products to specific, bespoke niche markets to mitigate the adverse effects of high competition. Over the five years through 2023-24, industry revenue is anticipated to dip at a compound annual rate of 3.4% to £4.2 billion. This is primarily due to increased competition and adverse economic climate constraining the average revenue per user (ARPU).

Telecommunications resellers provide fixed, mobile and data telecommunication services over networks owned by a third party. They purchase network capacity from network providers and sell it on through their own channels. The industry does not include wired telecommunication providers, wireless telecommunication providers or internet service providers.
