STORYLINE:

Ethiopian Airlines, the flagship carrier of Ethiopia, is working to strengthen its facility and capacity to accommodate its expanding business operations through collaboration with Chinese construction companies.

The project of constructing Ethiopian Airlines Group's future headquarters is progressing steadily, with expectations for completion in August 2026, as disclosed by the Chinese project contractor, China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC), on Monday.

The project is located inside the premises of the Addis Ababa Bole International Airport in the Ethiopian capital.

It includes six main buildings as the first phase, with a contract value of 67.8 million U.S. dollars.

"This project is the headquarters building of Ethiopian Airlines. The project has so far generated over 500 jobs for Ethiopians."

Ethiopian Airlines Group, Africa's largest and fastest-growing airline, is currently implementing a 15-year strategic plan, called Vision 2035.

As part of its expansion activities, the Ethiopian flag carrier actively partners with a number of Chinese companies.

In May, the company inaugurated its 50-million-U.S. dollar domestic passenger terminal project at the Addis Ababa Bole International Airport.

The terminal expansion and renovation work, carried out by China Communications Construction Company (CCCC), expands the facility two-fold to 25,270 square meters and equips the terminal with state-of-the-art passenger handling facilities.
