Top construction companies in Zimbabwe

Home » Uncategorized » Top construction companies in Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe’s construction industry sector has been one of the smallest in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), according to the BMI Research. The latest growth estimates by BMI Research are in sync with projections by the Infrastructure Development Bank of Zimbabwe (IDBZ) that the southern African country invested only US $2bn in construction projects in the recent past.

The country has faced challenges fraught with labor unrest, substantial delays on some of the country’s major construction projects, as well as recent setbacks in the economy highlighting the need for better coordination and monitoring within the construction industry.

However, the Government’s ongoing National Development Plan and its continued commitment to public infrastructure investment will see a projected growth rate of 4.3% which will be highly brought about by the top construction companies in the country who have pledged dedication in delivery and efficiency of projects.

The following are the top construction companies in Zimbabwe

Some of the remarkable projects they have pride themselves in include; construction of Mbano Manor Hotel, Shongwe Lodge falls, Warehouse renovations at Driptech, Harare among others.

More recently, Kevin established a specialist project management company to apply focused to the many construction projects that are under consideration in Zimbabwe as the country prepares to fulfill its potential in the region.
