Arvig

Arvig is a Minnesota-based telecommunications and broadband company that has been serving residential and business customers since 1950. Founded originally as the Perham Telephone Company by Royale and Eleanor Arvig, the company has grown from a small rural telephone operation into one of the nation's largest independent broadband service providers. Headquartered in Perham, Minnesota, Arvig operates across a 9,000 square-mile service area, delivering cutting-edge solutions including high-speed internet, television, phone services, security systems, Hosted PBX, and fiber transport.

The company is employee-owned and takes pride in its community-focused approach, viewing itself as neighbors first and a broadband provider second. Arvig's team of nearly 800 employees works to build and maintain reliable fiber networks that connect communities across Minnesota. As a technology leader, Arvig has been particularly noted as a pioneer in rural fiber deployment, bringing advanced connectivity options to areas often underserved by larger telecommunications companies. The company also operates subsidiary services including Arvig Construction (underground utility and communications contracting) and Arvig Answering Solutions (call center services).
