Zambian Households to Enjoy Smarter Living as MTN Zambia and Hazida Partner
MTN Zambia has entered into a strategic partnership with Hazida Electronics to bring smart living solutions and high-speed 5G home connectivity to households across the country.
The partnership, unveiled at Hazida’s flagship Ezone Store, now rebranded as the Hisense Brand Store, combines MTN Zambia’s 5G Home Internet with a wide range of Hisense smart devices, enabling seamless and connected home experiences.
Speaking at the launch, MTN Zambia Chief Home and Special Projects Officer Elias Chembe said the collaboration marks a major step towards making digital innovation more accessible to Zambian families.
“This partnership brings innovative solutions closer to our customers with ease and convenience. MTN Zambia 5G Home Internet delivers high-speed, reliable connectivity at an affordable cost, enabling households to enjoy uninterrupted access to smart TVs and multiple connected devices,” Mr Chembe said.
Under the partnership, customers purchasing selected Hisense smart devices will receive a complimentary plug-and-play MTN Zambia 5G router, allowing instant connectivity without the need for complex installations.
The service supports seamless streaming on platforms such as Netflix, Prime Video and YouTube, as well as access to online educational content, all pre-installed on Hisense Smart TVs to enhance both entertainment and learning experiences.
Beyond televisions, the collaboration extends to a full ecosystem of Wi-Fi-enabled Hisense smart appliances, including refrigerators, air conditioners and washing machines, all powered by MTN Zambia’s reliable home internet connectivity.
Hazida Electronics Marketing Manager Kaunda Kavindele said the partnership ensures customers experience the full value of smart technology in their daily lives.
“By integrating MTN Zambia 5G Home Internet with Hisense smart appliances, we are delivering real convenience, from connected kitchens and smart climate control to intelligent laundry solutions that can be managed remotely,” Mr Kavindele said.
MTN Zambia 5G Home Internet also enables customers to manage their homes remotely, including switching on air conditioners before arriving home and scheduling laundry cycles through the Hisense ConnectLife App.
Addressing guests at the launch, ISAN South Africa’s Key Account Manager Mr Ziad Kanji described the collaboration as a game-changer that goes beyond technology to improve everyday living.
“It’s not just about a product or an internet connection. It’s about the value it creates in your life and how these solutions become practical in day-to-day living,” Mr Kanji said.
He highlighted everyday conveniences such as maintaining ideal home temperatures and using intelligent appliances that notify users when essential items are running low or nearing expiry.
“Five years ago, the idea of having a screen on a refrigerator would have sounded bizarre. Today, it is normal. The question is, what will our homes look like in the next five years?” he said.
Mr Kanji concluded by congratulating MTN Zambia and Hazida on the partnership, expressing Hisense’s commitment to supporting the initiative and driving smarter, more connected living for households across Zambia.
