Chapter one
1.0. Introduction
To work as contractor and participate Construction in Ethiopia; any one needs to have construction license
form Ethiopian ministry of construction; there is grade in different categories; General Contractors (GC 1-
10) to work any civil construction works except water works; Building Contractor (BC 1-10) to work in
construction of buildings; Road Construction (RC 1-10) to participate in road construction; and Special
contractors (SC 1-4) specialized in single area of construction like foundation drilling. For foreign investor
only GC-1, BC-1, RC-1 or SC-1 registration allowed.
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia’s capital city, is expanding at a rate of 3.3% each year, creating a housing void that
needs to be filled. In fact, affordable housing is something of a nationwide priority for the Ethiopian
government, although at present much of the housebuilding activity is centered on the capital.
Condominium construction is the main focus and a collection of ongoing developments are scattered
across the capital – all with different price points but each with affordability in mind. The 40/60 program,
where tenants pay for 40% of an apartment’s cost and the government contributing the remaining 60%,
is making solid progress.
More than 1,290 apartment blocks, standing between 7-9 storeys tall have been completed in various
locations throughout Addis Ababa. 38,790 total condominium units are being built in 13 different sites in
the city. 80,000 further apartment blocks are planned under the 40/60 scheme over the next five years.
Outside the affordable housing sector, more high-end developments are planned. China’s Sinomark Real
Estate is developing a 21-tower residential complex in Addis Ababa. The Chinese developers have stated
this will be “the biggest real estate project in Ethiopia”, and will feature swimming pools, a commercial
zone and sports centers. Costs are expected to reach over $194 million.
Huge sums are being invested in infrastructure. Take the Grand Renaissance Dam (GERD) for example.
Ethiopia’s flagship infrastructure project, the $4.8 billion dam is one of the nation’s most expensive
developments.
Despite delays, thanks to political wrangling due to the GERD’s location spanning the Blue Nile which flows
into Egypt and Sudan, construction is well underway. Overseen by Italian firm Salini Impregilo, building
work on the dam is expected to finish in 2017, although the dam itself was stated to be 70% complete in
May 2016. It is estimated that the GERD will generate 6,000 megawatts of electricity.
Five new road-related projects kicked off in June 2016, three focused on building new links while the
remaining two are centered around repair and maintenance. A total of 347 kilometres of new highway will
be put into action after this project is finished at a cost of some $245 million. Local, state-owned
construction companies will be handling the building work. The longest individual stretch of road, Route
Number One, measures 60 kilometers, connecting Adama and Awash in eastern Addis Ababa.
It is not just the residential or infrastructure sectors that are powering Ethiopia’s construction boom.
Commercial construction activity is playing no small role in changing the face of the Ethiopian building
industry.
The headquarters of the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia (CBE) are being constructed at present by the China
State Construction & Engineering Corporation. Once completed, the CBE’s head office will be East Africa’s
tallest building at an impressive 198 meters tall. Foundations have been laid, so construction on the super
structure is now beginning in earnest.
Africa’s largest terminal for fresh produce is also being built at the rapidly expanding Bole International
Airport. The 17,000 square meter facility will enable Ethiopia to offer Africa’s biggest logistics hub to a
variety of international customers, meaning trade levels could rise substantially. The new facility is
expected to handle 600,000 tons of cargo at full capacity.
Infrastructural facilities that have been put in place for decades and a half namely, roads, schools,
health centers and residential houses are part of growth. At the same time they enable the tapping of
the nation's human and material resources. The second Growth and Transformation Plan also
emphasizes achieving economic growth bringing structural change as its main objective. That means of
transforming the agricultural-led economy to the industry led one, which needs shifting agricultural labor
to that of manufacturing and service, enables the nation to obtain demographic dividend. This, in turn,
indicates the vitality of the expansion of urbanization which needs more construction work. Currently,
the construction industry has tremendous impact on the Growth Domestic Production by creating value
chains with other sub sectors such as cement industries, small scale enterprises. Such enterprises are
engaged in metal and wood work production utilized as an input for the building construction and stone
crushing companies.

1.5. Safety
The company will be committed to conducting business in a manner that protects the health and safety of
all employees, customers, and persons living in the community where it operates. To accomplish this,
Concrete Installation will ensure that it complies with current Health Administration and Occupational
Health and Safety laws and will maintain its operations, procedures, technologies, and policies accordingly.
Each employee will have the responsibility to fully comply with established safety rules and to perform
work in such a manner to prevent injuries to themselves and others. Concrete Installation is very concerned
about job-site safety and plans to set up a comprehensive safety program.
Residential Construction
With a large and growing population, Ethiopia is facing a major housing deficit. As such, residential
construction has been targeted as main area of development by the government. The Ministry of Urban
Development, Housing & Construction says it will build 2.45 million houses over the course of the five year
GTP II.
The housing deficit can perhaps be best exemplified by the capital. A 2011 UN report suggested, at that
time, that Addis Ababa needed at least 300,000 new homes to meet demand. 74 However, with the city
expanding at a rate of 3.8% per year, in terms of both wealth and population 75, more and more housing
units are needed.
While investment figures have yet to be released, costs are expected to reach billions. For example,
700,000 condominiums are planned for construction over the next five years. Total costs for these housing
units is estimated at $312 million.
Projections from Ethiopia’s Central Statistics Agency suggest that 22 million people will make up the
country’s urban population by 2020. 79 At this time, the total population is expected to exceed 100 million.
It is only logical that housing demand will rapidly expand during this period.
Infrastructure Construction
Infrastructure investment accounts for the majority of the government’s construction spending. The East
African reported that 2014 saw $1.5 billion of Ethiopia’s total $8.5 billion government budget being
invested in infrastructure. 58 A wealth of construction projects began under the auspices of the first
Growth and Transformation Plan. The second GTP will improve on the targets laid down in the initial plan.
The table below revels construction activities planned under GTP II:
Construction Review Online noted that roughly $20billion has been set aside by the government for energy
infrastructure construction. GTP II will be the main beneficent of this huge investment level. Much of the
funds will go towards 10-12 new power generation projects.
Updating transport links is another aspect of infrastructure that the Ethiopian government is keen to
explore. A number of collaborative projects have been completed in recent years. These demonstrate the
vast sums Ethiopia is willing to invest in such developments.
Industrial Construction
The industrial output of Ethiopia currently stands at 15% of the nation’s total GDP. As with many aspects
of the nation’s economic composition, the government is keen to increase this. A range of new construction
projects are thus underway to boost industrial output.
One such project is the building of four new industrial parks in Adama, Mekelle, Kombolcha and Dire Dawa
and bahir dar Construction of these facilities was expected to commence in late May 2016. The building of
these facilities is expected to cost in the region of $1 billion. Each has a construction time of 9 months so
could be fully operational by February 2017. A total of nine new industrial parks are to be built across
Ethiopia.
A number of new stadiums are to be built across the country. Addis Ababa will see five alone. Dotted
around the city, they will range in size from 40,000 square meters, 70,000 square meters, and 110,000
square meters. Each will have a maximum capacity of 30,000 occupants.
Developing Addis Ababa’s business district is also a top priority. The headquarters of major pan-African
organizations are situated here. Thus, a big effort is being put into developing the city’s business related
areas. For example, the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia recently hired the Chinese State Construction
Engineering Corporation Ltd (CSCEC) to construct a new 42-storey block to house its offices. The $266.5
million development will become the tallest building in African once completed.
The company will adopt a corporate strategy that is dedicated to improving the performance of activities
on the critical path of its customers' projects. The company will do this by building on its core strengths:
innovative equipment, design engineering expertise, and project and site management, within an
environment of safety excellence.
In our company, customer service is a pro-active partnership, a relationship that ensures a professional,
efficiently run, safe workplace. The company's customer service philosophy starts at the top, is ingrained
into the fabric of the company,
Attract customers (organization) who will constantly look to build houses, supplies and
subcontracts.

Brochures. The objective of brochures is to portray the company goals and products as an attractive
functionality. It is also to show customers how to use the latest in technology as it relates to construction
and building services. Concrete Installation will develop three brochures: one to be used to promote sales,
one to use to announce the product in a new market, and the other to recruit sales associates.
The company's management philosophy will be based on responsibility and mutual respect. The company
will maintain an environment and structure that will encourage productivity and respect for customers
and fellow employees.
