Meet Henry Bran Whose Bringing Internet with Heart to Rural Alberta

At Xplore, we believe in the power of community and the importance of reliable Internet for everyone, especially in rural areas. That’s why we’re proud to partner with dedicated local dealers like Henry Bran, the owner of LA Satellite who spends his days bringing Xplore’s faster, better Internet to Lethbridge, Alberta.

From El Salvador to Southern Alberta: Henry’s Journey

Henry Bran’s story is one of passion and dedication. Growing up in El Salvador and moving to Canada in the 90s, Henry has always been driven by a desire to help others. In 2014, he saw a significant need for reliable Internet in rural areas and decided to take action. With a background in technical support at Shaw Cable, Henry wanted to get out of the office and into the field, helping people directly. This led him to start LA Satellite – the LA stands for Lethbridge, Alberta, which is where Henry settled. For the past five years, he and the LA team have been an essential part of the Xplore family.

Growing with Xplore

Starting with just Henry and his brother, LA Satellite has grown to include five technicians and three salespeople. This growth is a testament to the demand for reliable Internet in rural communities and Henry’s commitment to meeting that need. “Seeing that there was such a big need, we applied to be a dealer for Xplore,” Henry explains. “That’s what drove me to start a business, hire people, and help the people that I work with and their families grow.”

Why Local Matters

Customers appreciate having a local dealer like LA Satellite because it means they are treated as individuals, not just numbers. This personal touch and quicker service make a significant difference in customer satisfaction.

Staying Ahead with Xplore

Henry is proud of how Xplore stays innovative, constantly upgrading their technology. “In the last few years I’ve been with them, they’ve gone from 45, 5G, and even fibre,” he notes. This commitment to staying ahead of the curve ensures that customers always have access to the best possible Internet speeds and reliability.

Transforming Lives with Reliable Internet

One of the most rewarding aspects of Henry’s work is seeing how reliable Internet transforms lives. He shares a story about helping a traditional farming community with multiple homes get connected. “They have their own private schools, their own areas that use the Internet. It brings the future to them,” Henry explains. With high-speed Internet, these communities can operate automation, enhance security, stay connected to the world, and support education and farming activities.
