Mobilicity moves into Metro

Canada's smart mobile carrier begins roll-out into Metro grocery stores across Ontario

TORONTO, Dec. 13, 2011 /CNW/ - December 13, 2011 - Mobilicity today announced a partnership with Metro Inc., continuing to make good on its pledge to bring the best value in mobile phones to a growing number of Canadians.

Mobilicity is opening nine kiosks as part of a test-pilot program at Metro stores in Toronto and Ottawa - representing the grocery leader's first foray into the wireless space.

"Metro fits perfectly into our retail distribution expansion strategy," said Mobilicity Chief Customer Officer Anthony Booth. "We look forward to growing our presence at Metro over the holidays and into the New Year as we make it easy for consumers to access the ultimate in unlimited talk, text and data plans while they shop for groceries."

Today's news reinforces Mobilicity's commitment to growing its national retail distribution, as well as its network of Mobilicity stores across the five markets in which it operates.
