Overview
Tanzania's first carrier-neutral Tier III colocation facility, under construction on Old Bagamoyo Road, Dar es Salaam.
Why it matters
Announced 23 March 2022 as a 'metro-edge', multi-megawatt colocation investment, with Master Power Technologies named for construction (Aug 2021). Commissioning was first flagged for 2024; as of July 2026 reporting the operator still 'expects to open' Tanzania's first carrier-neutral Tier III facility this year. IFC disclosures list Raxio's Tanzania build among its frontier-market data centre investments.
Where marketing and evidence diverge
Opening-date divergence: commissioning flagged for 2024 in early coverage vs July 2026 reporting that the facility is still expected to open 'this year'. Capacity figures were never published; treat the multi-megawatt framing as operator intent, not a tracked MW figure.
Certification position: Tier III stated as design intent ('poised to be the country's first carrier-neutral Tier III facility'); no constructed-facility certification on record yet.
