About Abramba
Abramba Technologies PLC was founded in Ethiopia in August 2015 to help bring clean, efficient energy to everyone, starting in Ethiopia and then across Africa. Our headquarters and factory are in the Bahir Dar Industrial Zone, where production began in 2023.
Our founders are Ethiopian-Americans who spent their careers at major U.S. technology companies. Together they bring more than 50 years of experience in semiconductors, consumer electronics and technology manufacturing, and they came home to build that capability in Ethiopia.
Our factory
A long-term lease in the Bahir Dar Industrial Zone, with room to grow.
Surface-mount circuit board assembly, final assembly and testing under one roof.
Technicians and engineers trained on site, in partnership with Bahir Dar University and local technical colleges.
