Orange is a French telecommunications company. At the end of 2019, it had almost 266 million customers worldwide, up on the figures for 2018. In 2019, the company was the leading or second-largest operator in 75% of the European countries in which it operated and in 83% of the countries in Africa and the Middle East.
Orange was originally a British telecommunications company that became a subsidiary of Mannesmann in 1999 and of the state-owned France Télécom group in 2000. The former French state-owned monopoly thus became international following the Orange takeover. The new group is now present in Europe, Africa and the West Indies.
