Afrihost is a South Africa-based telecommunications provider that delivers web hosting and IT services to individuals and organizations seeking reliable online infrastructure and support. It was founded in the late 1990s by three friends who valued service and product excellence, a philosophy later reinforced by Greg Payne to balance strategy and innovation. The company grew from early Linux web hosting efforts and is anchored in Johannesburg, Gauteng, with a mid-sized workforce. 

Initial focus on Linux web hosting evolved into a broader set of broadband and IT services, aimed at delivering dependable performance and customer care. In 2013 Afrihost expanded into mobile products, broadening its offerings beyond hosting. Afrihost has earned multiple MyBroadband Awards for its broadband and hosting services, including Best Broadband ISP in 2023 and 2024, and two MyBroadband Awards in 2026.
