About Addis Ababa
A diplomatic and business capital.
Addis Ababa is the seat of the African Union and hosts many international organisations, embassies and NGOs, alongside a fast-growing business sector. Ethiopia's telecoms market has opened up in recent years, bringing new network and data centre investment.
Sites are commonly in Bole, near the airport, and in Kazanchis, the city centre and the growing business areas along the main ring roads.
Importing network and server equipment into Ethiopia can need extra paperwork and time, so we plan the parts and tools well ahead of the visit.
