América Móvil is a Mexico City–based telecommunications company offering a broad range of communications services across Latin America and beyond. The company provides mobile voice and data networks, fixed-line telephone services, broadband internet access and pay-television solutions under well-known brands such as Telcel, Claro and Embratel. It caters to both consumer and enterprise customers, delivering wireless connectivity, fiber-to-the-home broadband and managed network services for businesses of varying sizes.
Established in 2000 as a spin-off from Teléfonos de México (Telmex) under the leadership of Carlos Slim Helú, América Móvil quickly expanded throughout the region. Through strategic acquisitions and network investments, it built one of the largest mobile subscriber bases in the world. Over the years, the company has refined its infrastructure, deploying advanced LTE and fiber-optic networks to support growing demand for high-speed internet and digital entertainment services.
América Móvil’s service portfolio extends across more than a dozen countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, including Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Chile, Peru and Central American markets. The company has also held interests in U.S. prepaid wireless services, leveraging its scale to bring cost-effective roaming and data packages to travelers. In addition to core connectivity offerings, it has begun investing in cloud computing, Internet of Things (IoT) platforms and digital financial services to diversify revenue streams and support emerging market needs.
Under the direction of Chief Executive Officer Daniel Hajj Aboumrad, América Móvil continues to focus on network modernization and customer experience enhancements. As part of the Slim family’s wider business holdings, the company benefits from integrated operations in infrastructure, retail and technology development. Its ongoing objective is to maintain leadership in regional telecommunications by expanding network coverage, improving service reliability and accelerating the rollout of next-generation connectivity.
