September 2, 2025 – Victoria, MN: Midco is proud to announce the expansion of services in Victoria following the city’s approval of a new television franchise. Current fiber internet customers will have the ability to add MidcoTV to their services by calling 1.800.888.1300, texting 64326 or visiting Midco.com/MidcoTV.
“We are thrilled to expand our services and broaden our investment in Victoria,” said Midco President and Chief Operating Officer Ben Dold. “Since we began construction there in 2024, we have enjoyed getting to know the people of Victoria and delivering them our best-in-class network and customer-centric approach outlined in our Midco Customer Commitment.”
Midco teams have built 80,000 feet of fiber network and connected more than 700 homes in Victoria since construction began. More than 1,500 additional homes will be connected this year, and Midco will finish building out the entire community by the end of 2026.
“We are pleased to welcome Midco to Victoria,” said City Manager Dana Hardie. “More choices for our residents is an important step in supporting connectivity, access to information and quality of life in our community. We value strong partnerships and look forward to working with Midco.”
