Investment Firm Owner Helps Great Plains Communications Continue Rapid Expansion

Great Plains Communications is one of a growing number of tier 2 and 3 providers with long-term roots that has been acquired by an investment firm, a move that has helped the company expand rapidly. In 2018, the Hunt family sold the business to investment firm Grain Management. The company has now expanded its 9,500-mile fiber network to 18,000+ miles in 13 states, offering customers a robust portfolio of services that include traditional residential/commercial internet service, business services, services to both multi-dwelling units and greenfield developments, and carrier services. Since Grain Management bought the company, Great Plains Communications has made five separate acquisitions that have been pivotal to its growth. “Our differentiator is service. The quality of the experience,” said Great Plains Communications CEO Todd Foje.
