Vodafone moves to take full control of UK’s biggest mobile network in £4.3bn deal

  • Vodafone will buy CK Hutchison’s 49 per cent stake for £4.3bn.
  • The deal gives Vodafone full control of the UK’s largest mobile operator.
  • It comes sooner than expected and tightens focus on Britain and Germany.

Vodafone is moving to take full ownership of the UK’s biggest mobile network in a £4.3bn deal, buying out its long-time partner CK Hutchison from their joint venture, VodafoneThree. The transaction, once completed, will hand Vodafone Group complete control of a network that serves more than 27 million subscribers across Britain.

The move follows the £16.5bn merger that combined Vodafone’s UK operations with Hutchison’s Three business in 2023, creating a market leader ahead of BT Group’s EE and Virgin Media O2, which is backed by Telefónica and Liberty Global. That merger reduced the number of major UK mobile operators from four to three, marking one of the biggest shifts in the sector in years.
