Grain Management has completed the acquisition of a majority interest in Hunter Communications, a regional bandwidth infrastructure provider in southern Oregon and northern California. Terms of the transaction, originally announced in August 2019, were not disclosed.

Hunter owns and operates a private fiber-optic network in Oregon with more than 2,000 route miles. The company provides data and voice services to businesses and homes throughout southern Oregon and parts of northern California.

Since announcing its investment, Grain has worked closely with Hunter's management team to help prepare the company for its next phase of growth.

Hunter Communications Founder and CEO Richard Ryan said: "Hunter Communications is ideally positioned to further penetrate a growing fiber market with the backing of our new partners at Grain, who bring decades of communications industry expertise. This partnership is proof of the progress the Hunter team has made, establishing itself as an industry leader, servicing our customers for over 25 years. Our team is looking forward to the further expansion of our network as we continually improve the quality of our customer experience."
