Gateway Fiber has announced the beginning of construction on a fiber network expansion to yet another Minnesota community.

The announcement released this week detailed Gateway’s construction efforts in Plymouth, Minnesota, a community of more than 80,000 residents roughly 10 miles west of Minneapolis.

The work in Plymouth continues Gateway’s expansion in the Minneapolis area.

Last year, Gateway launched services in Blaine and Coon Rapids, according to Gateway’s release.

Earlier this year, the company also launched services in Champlin, Brooklyn Park, and Maple Grove, Gateway’s announcement stated.

As construction continues, Gateway is highlighting their business model as one that sets the company apart from rival providers.

“Gateway Fiber has changed how customers view their internet provider,” said John Meyer, the chief marketing officer for Gateway Fiber. “We make things easy for our customers. Real, local staff answer our phones, and we have a simple, straightforward pricing model. It’s not novel, but it’s unique to the internet landscape.”

According to Gateway’s release, the company provides flat-rate pricing “with no fees, installation charges, or surprise rate hikes.”

The company also claimed to offer customer service ratings that are 70 points higher than industry averages, according to Gateway’s recent announcement.

“Outdated technologies such as cable internet have dominated the online landscape for too long,” said Chris Surdo, the president of Gateway Fiber. “High-speed fiber internet service revolutionizes the online experience for residents and business, allowing more connected devices and better reliability.”

Gateway also announced it has opened an office and warehouse in Fridley, a community in the Minneapolis metro area, and is hiring technicians, sales staff, and construction professionals.
