Arab Contractors Company continues to strengthen its presence in the African continent, with the signing of a contract to develop the land and sea route between the cities of Sueyo and Cabinda in the Republic of Angola, in a step that represents the company’s official entry into the Angolan market, and adds a new milestone to its long record of implementing infrastructure and development projects in the African continent.

Arab Contractors continues its expansion in Africa

Arab Contractors is one of the largest construction companies in Africa, having started its operations on the continent in 1964. It currently has branches and subsidiaries in 24 African countries and has implemented more than 100 projects in the fields of roads, bridges, dams, water and power stations and government buildings.

The Julius Nyerere Hydroelectric Dam and Power Station project in Tanzania stands out as one of the most important projects in which the company has participated. It is one of the largest energy projects in Africa with a generation capacity of up to 2,115 megawatts, and aims to provide electricity to millions of citizens and support industrial development in the country.

The company has also implemented a large number of road projects in various African countries, including Uganda, Cameroon and the Democratic Republic of Congo, where it obtained contracts to build and develop hundreds of kilometers of strategic roads and bridges, contributing to strengthening connectivity between cities and economic regions.

In the Democratic Republic of Congo, Arab Contractors won a project to build a 150-kilometer road linking the cities of Kamuisha and Kananga, which includes the construction of three bridges and rainwater protection and drainage works, with funding from the European Development Fund.

The company also seeks to expand its activity in several African markets by focusing on transport, roads, bridges, dams and infrastructure projects, benefiting from its technical expertise and ability to implement major projects according to the specified timetables.

The road project between Soyo and Cabinda in Angola represents a new step within the Arab Contractors' strategy for external expansion, especially in light of the growing African demand for infrastructure projects, which are a fundamental pillar for achieving economic development and enhancing regional integration among the countries of the continent.
