Prattsburgh, New York – April 24, 2023 – Empire Fiber Internet, a Northeast fiber optic service provider, is set to continue its expansion strategy with service to Bloomsburg, Hazleton, and Nanticoke, Pennsylvania. When completed in Fall of 2023, the buildout will offer residents and businesses Gigabit-speed Internet, TV, phone, and security solutions.

Headquartered in Prattsburgh, New York, Empire Fiber Internet provides fiber optic-backed Internet services to smaller-in-size communities in upstate New York and Northern Pennsylvania. Empire Fiber Internet primarily serves areas without access to high-speed Internet and provides businesses and residential customers alike with reliable connectivity. Additionally, Empire was ranked the fastest Internet in the Northeast by PCMag. This expansion adds three new communities to Empire Fiber Internet’s network which has seen significant growth over the past year.

“The demand for reliable Internet access drives us to continue expanding to communities in need,” said Jim Baase, CEO at Empire Fiber Internet. “We believe that each community is critical to what we do, and we take pride in our local support teams. By keeping our customer service and construction at the local level, we stay closely connected to the communities we are a part of. Unlike many of our competitors, our customers will not see sudden price increases. We firmly offer the best Internet at an affordable price. We are excited to welcome Bloomsburg, Hazleton, and Nanticoke to the Empire Access family!”

Empire Fiber Internet pairs its high-speed fiber optic Internet with a complete array of telecommunication and security services:

  • Streaming TV delivering crystal clear, 100% HD picture quality, restart TV, Whole Home DVR, and much more
