International projects

South Africa’s engineering expertise is in demand across the African continent, presenting excellent opportunities for niche expansion. Current projects include work in Ghana for Brightwater Property Investments (BPI).

BPI was appointed by Ghana Airports Company Limited in April 2019 to facilitate the development of Airport City II near Kotoka International Airport in Accra.

The brief further extends to include designs for stormwater, bridge and culvert systems, water reticulation and sewer infrastructure.

“We’ve been delivering excellence since 2005, progressively refining our niche market offerings, and to date have successfully handed over close to 100 projects. This makes us well placed to help South Africa rebuild and grow its multifaceted infrastructure platforms,” Mathibe concludes.
