About Paragon
A data centre built in the South East, for the South East.
Paragon exists because systems that matter to people in Enugu, Onitsha, Aba and Owerri deserve a home as good as any in Lagos, without the drive.
Monday planning with the operations and sales teams.
01Our story
Why we built it.
For years, the systems that run banks, hospitals and schools in the South East lived in rooms that were never meant for them: a cupboard with a split unit, a generator that needed someone to start it, one internet cable. When something failed at night, it stayed failed until morning.
Paragon was built to fix that. We chose Independence Layout for its two substations and three fibre routes, built every system twice, and hired people who care about the 3am phone call as much as the sales meeting.
02Timeline
Where we have come from.
An idea in a bank basement
Our founders ran IT for banks in the South East and kept watching good systems fail for want of power.
Land and permits
We bought the site in Independence Layout for its two substations and three fibre routes.
Hall one opens
220 racks, two carriers on day one, and our first customer, a microfinance bank, moved in over a weekend.
Nine carriers
The meet-me room filled up, and the local exchange started swapping traffic inside the South East.
Hall two fit-out
200 more racks and a second plant room, opening in phases from next year.

04How we work
Four promises we hold ourselves to.
Someone is always awake
The operations centre is never empty. Your call is answered by a person who can walk to your rack.
We write it down
Every change, every visit and every alarm is logged and shared with you.
We stay neutral
We do not sell servers, cloud or bandwidth bundles, so our advice is never a sales pitch.
We use less
Solar, gas-ready generators and contained aisles keep our power and your bill down.
05Careers
Work with us.
We hire engineers, guards and graduates from across the South East.
Shifts are paid fairly, training is paid for and every engineer gets a path to a certificate. Send your CV and the role you want.
