In our 16-year history, Zamra has proven time and time again that we are leaders in quality and excellence.

Did you know?

In the past, some of our more remote sites were extremely inaccessible. At one point, Zamra had to use over 250 donkeys working in shifts to transport everything from building materials to water!

2000 – After breaking away from Milestone PLC, Zamra is born as a grade 6 Building Contractor.
2008 – Zamra achieves Grade 1 building contractor status
2013 – Zamra awarded ISO 9001:2008 certification

The Present Day

Zamra is set to break the 1 billion ETB revenue mark this year! With a 706 million ETB project in Gondar, along with a 250 million ETB project in Kolfe and a 594 million ETB project in Mekelle we will comfortably reach 1 billion this year!
We are on the road to becoming a Grade 1 General Contractor – in line with our goals to expand into road, bridge and waterworks construction.
We have also recently relocated to our new headquarters in Ayat. The five-storey edifice housed on a 1,000 square metre site gives us more space to assist with our expansion projects.

We look forward to moving on to even bigger and better accomplishments in the coming decades!
