Canada's Rogers keeps gap with Bell to over 1m, as Telus closes up
Canadian market leader Rogers Wireless has maintained its lead over Bell Mobility at over 1m customers, despite being outperformed by its arch-rival in terms of proportionate growth for the first time in five quarters. Quarter on quarter growth at Rogers fell to an all-time low of just 0.7% in Q2 2007 whilst Bell Mobility recovered from its first ever negative quarter in Q1 2007 to post growth of 1.1%. This reduced Rogers' lead over Bell from 1.043m to 1.028m customers, as it moved onto a total of 6.91m to Bell's 5.88m. As the market leader has opened up its lead over Bell over the last couple of years, so third placed telus Mobility has closed down the gap on its nearest rival. telus trumped both companies with net additions of 128k in Q2 2007 - more than both Rogers and Bell put together - closing the margin between itself and Bell to 612k and taking 30% out of the advantage held by the larger company a year earlier. more
