América Móvil is a Mexican telecommunications company headquartered in Mexico City that provides a broad range of communications services. Established in the early 2000s out of the expansion of the Slim family’s telecommunications holdings, the company is a major provider of mobile and fixed-line telephony, broadband internet and pay-television services in the region. Its operations span retail consumer services as well as wholesale and enterprise solutions, positioning it as an integrated communications provider across multiple customer segments.
The company markets services under several regional brands—most notably Telcel in Mexico and Claro across many Latin American markets—and offers both prepaid and postpaid mobile plans, fixed and mobile broadband, fiber-to-the-home where available, and video/broadcast distribution services. In addition to core connectivity offerings, América Móvil develops and sells related telecommunications products and business-to-business services, including managed network solutions, data center and cloud capabilities, machine-to-machine and IoT applications, and other digital services aimed at enterprises and service providers.
América Móvil’s footprint is concentrated across Latin America and the Caribbean, with operations in multiple national markets and selective presence in other international jurisdictions. The company serves residential, business and wholesale customers and emphasizes network investment, spectrum management and technological upgrades to expand coverage and capacity in its served geographies. Its market position is built on extensive mobile and fixed infrastructure and long-established distribution channels in the region.
The company has long been controlled by the Slim family, and its executive leadership has included Daniel Hajj as chief executive officer, supported by a corporate management team responsible for operations across its markets. América Móvil’s strategic focus historically centers on scaling connectivity services, improving broadband penetration, and developing value-added digital and enterprise offerings while managing regulatory and competitive dynamics in the telecommunications sector.
