80% of Papua New Guinea's 6.5 million people live in rural areas with few or no facilities. With an area of 462,840 sq KM, Papua New Guinea has almost twice the land area of New Zealand. Many communities are located in mountainous interior and many tribes have little contact with each other, let alone with the outside world.

Abundant rainforests provide the raw material for a logging industry, which is dominated by foreign-owned companies. Conservation groups have criticised the social and environmental impact of logging and other disruptive industries such as mining. Papua New Guinea's mineral deposits - including gold, copper and nickel - are extensive, but the difficult terrain and poor infrastructure make exploitation slow.

OCL PNG has a total of 107 employees scattered throughout 10 different locations in some of the most rugged and inaccessible terrain in the world. All of the main operations are controlled from Port Moresby.

Sales order generation and processing, distribution to regional centers, card activation, fulfillment phone to phone and finance related operations emanate from Port Moresby. OCL PNG operate from 4 hubs that will be able to service the entire country. These are located at:

Port Moresby – Port Moresby area (capital of PNG)

Lae – Momase region (Lae / Madang / Popondetta / Wewak / Alotou)

Mt Hagen – New Guinea Highlands (Mt Hagen / Kundiawa / Mendi / Goroka)

Kokopo – New Guinea Islands (Buka / Kavieng / Kimbe / Kokopo)
