"We are not just celebrating growth but also celebrating the people who made it possible.”
MONCKS CORNER, SC October 1, 2025 — Home Telecom is excited to announce they have
reached a new milestone of 50,000 customers throughout the Lowcountry, reflecting not only
rapid growth – doubling its customer base in just seven years – but also the enduring trust of the
communities it has served for more than a century.
“As we approach 122 years in business, this milestone is more than a number; it is a testament
to the power of local connections,” said William Helmly, president and CEO of Home Telecom.
“Our employees are the heartbeat of this company. Their passion, innovation, and dedication
are what make Home Telecom a trusted name in the region. We are not just celebrating growth
but also celebrating the people who made it possible.”
Home Telecom’s deep roots in the Lowcountry continue to shape its mission: delivering
innovative technology with a personal touch. From expanding multi-gig internet into rural areas
to launching community-wide SmartTown Wi-Fi, the company is committed to bridging the
digital divide and keeping the Charleston region connected.
“We have been part of this community for generations, and we are just getting started,” said
Gina Shuler, vice president of Marketing. “Our growth is fueled by the trust of our neighbors,
and we are investing that trust right back—through sponsorships, grants, and technology that
empowers families, schools, and businesses to thrive.”
With the recent launch of 5 Gbps service in Nexton and the innovative MyWiFi Outdoor
product, Home Telecom continues to push boundaries in connectivity and customer
experience.
“Being a local provider gives us a unique advantage,” said Phallan Robbins, vice president of
