International Trade Fair Coming to Ethiopia
The BIG 5 Construct Ethiopia is to be held at the Millennium Hall in May 2023. Endorsed by the Ministry of Urban Development and Infrastructure, the exhibition will showcase opportunities across Ethiopia’s construction sector, which currently contributes 5Pct towards Ethiopia’s workforce, according to the Central Statistics Service (CSS).
Organized by dmg events and its local partner Ethel Events and Communication, and part of The Big 5 global series of events, the three-day exhibition is to host local, and international attendees that are intent on taking part in Ethiopia’s growing construction sector. The goal of The Big 5 Construct Ethiopia is to accelerate construction industry innovations and complement Ethiopia’s economic growth, investment, and a sustainably built environment.
Dmg has 40 years of experience in organizing exhibitions, with 10 in Africa. It acquired Addis Build Construction Exhibition—the longest-running building and construction exhibition in Ethiopia—in 2020. The exhibition will be targeted towards contractors, project managers, engineers, architects, quality surveyors, distributors, and manufacturers.
