Abay Technical and Trading S.C is the largest automotive company in Ethiopia. In 2009 it has been privatized from the privatization and public enterprise. Prior to that, Abay Technical and Trading Share Company was a government-owned company established in 1994 (1986 E.C) to give technical support on vehicle maintenance, as well as supply spare parts to various governmental organizations and to the public transport sector. The company was structured with core and support departments and management systems to be led by a board of directors owned by the Ethiopian Privatization Agency before it was acquired by its new owners.
The company has specialized in general automotive maintenance work, bus body building and repairing, assembly and sales of vehicles, import and sales of heavy-duty trucks and machinery. The new owners of Abay Technical and Trading S.C have converted some of the acquired facilities into more productive assets. Among the fixed assets acquired is a large warehouse, which was converted into a car assembly plant. The plant, with modern equipment and machinery, has what is required for the assembly work. The local assembly of different types of cars helps save costs and foreign currency and creates jobs for additional workers. It is also a means of technology transfer that will benefit the country.
The company’s core business is based on import and distribution of various model light vehicles, construction machinery, trucks, spare parts, assembling of different types of small vehicles (single and double pickup, minibus and station wagons), providing vehicle maintenance service from light to heavy vehicles for all models and years of production.
