Why we build here
Ethiopia cannot import its way out of energy poverty.
Most solar products sold in Ethiopia arrive finished from abroad. We design and assemble ours locally, which changes what each product means for customers and for the country.
Keeps value at home
Local manufacturing cuts foreign-currency outflow by at least half compared with importing a finished product.
Priced to compete
Building locally lets us price competitively against imports while meeting national quality standards.
Service that stays
Local after-sales and warranty support, because the people who built your product are in the same country.
Builds skills
We train technicians and engineers in electronics manufacturing, in partnership with Bahir Dar University and local technical colleges.

Manufacturing
More than solar: a manufacturing partner in East Africa
Solar is where we started. Our goal is to become a leading contract manufacturer of technology products for African and global brands, building the industrial base the region needs.
If you are a brand looking to make electronics closer to African customers, we would like to talk.

Together, in Amharic, Abramba means “light up the hamlet, the town, the city.” It is what we set out to do in 2015.
