In a strategic move to reinforce its position as a leading fiber internet provider, Ezee Fiber has announced its acquisition of Tachus Fiber Internet, a prominent Texas-based internet service provider. The acquisition will significantly enhance Ezee Fiber’s footprint across the Greater Houston area, especially in its northern communities.
Strengthening the Fiber Infrastructure Landscape
Ezee Fiber, headquartered in Houston and wholly owned by I Squared Capital, has rapidly emerged as a major player in the fiber internet space. This deal adds over 60,000 residential and business subscribers from Tachus to Ezee Fiber’s growing customer base and integrates Tachus’ fully underground, high-reliability fiber network.
The acquisition is part of Ezee Fiber’s broader investment strategy, which includes over $850 million allocated for expansion projects in Houston ($200M), New Mexico ($250M), and Washington State ($400M) over the past two years.
Operational Details and Leadership Perspective
“”Bringing Ezee Fiber and Tachus together unlocks tremendous value for both companies, our customers, and the communities we proudly serve,” said Matt Marino, Chief Executive Officer of Ezee Fiber. “Tachus has established itself as a leader through its exceptional fiber internet product, outstanding customer service, and unmatched reliability. Together, we’re uniquely positioned to set an even higher standard of excellence in fiber internet. I am thrilled to personally welcome the talented Tachus team into the Ezee Fiber family and look forward to building an exciting future together.”
Tachus’ operational infrastructure, known for being 100% underground, will now be complemented by Ezee Fiber’s multi-gig, carrier-grade service model. Both entities are aligned in their commitment to community-focused service delivery, transparent pricing, and long-term scalability.
Economic Impact and Market Positioning
With this merger, Ezee Fiber expects to exceed 600,000 fiber passings across Texas, New Mexico, and Washington by the end of 2025. The integration is designed to strengthen regional competitiveness while also positioning Ezee Fiber for national growth in the fast-expanding fiber broadband market.
According to Gautam Bhandari, Managing Partner and Global Chief Investment Officer at I Squared Capital, “This investment reflects I Squared’s focus on building scalable, high-impact platforms that address essential infrastructure needs. The combined strength of Ezee Fiber and Tachus offers a formidable regional competitor with national potential.”
Strategic Significance
The transaction highlights a growing trend in the U.S. digital infrastructure market—regional consolidations to achieve scale, reduce operational costs, and accelerate deployment in underserved areas. As demand for high-speed, low-latency internet access continues to surge, especially post-pandemic, this acquisition aligns with broader goals of bridging the digital divide across suburban and semi-rural America.
