Excellence Recognized: Temer Properties Takes Top Honors at 20th Grand Africa Awards

Temer Properties: A Diamond in Ethiopian Real Estate

In a definitive testament to its commitment to excellence, Temer Properties has once again taken center stage in the Ethiopian real estate sector. At the recently concluded 20th Grand Africa Awards held at the Adwa Victory Memorial Museum, the company was honored with the Diamond Level Award, the highest tier of recognition for organizational performance and leadership.

For Temer Properties, the greatest reward lies in the joy, satisfaction, and gratitude reflected in the faces of its customers, who consistently benefit from timely delivery and uncompromising quality.

This is not the first time Temer has been recognized. Over the years, various awarding institutions have acknowledged the company’s extraordinary performance and leadership excellence in the real estate sector.

The Diamond-Level Award received at the recent 20th Grand Africa Awards ceremony, held at the Adwa Memorial Museum, stands as a testament to Temer’s institutional excellence.

For the past 31 years, the Grand Africa Awards organization has evaluated institutions across multiple sectors, granting recognition and honors to outstanding performers. In this year’s ceremony, the organization presented Temer Properties with a Diamond-Level Trophy and an Honorary Diploma.

Employees and leaders of Temer Properties, representing various professional levels, competed alongside peers from other institutions and emerged victorious, earning medals and certificates for their achievements.

Investing in Human Capital

Sales Manager Teshome Girma stated that the award clearly demonstrates how investing in people leads to meaningful change and recognition.

“The primary focus of any organization should be human capital development. The work Temer has done in empowering its workforce has earned it recognition from the Grand Africa Awards, which honors dedication and excellence,” he said.

Another Sales Manager, Mahder Fikadu, expressed her immense joy at the company’s achievement:

“I am thrilled that the transformation Temer has brought to Ethiopia’s real estate sector over the past ten years, through trust, speed, and quality housing development, has received the recognition it deserves.”

Award-winning Temer employees also stressed that the Grand Africa Award motivates them to deliver even higher levels of customer satisfaction going forward.

Why Temer Stands Out?

Temer Properties has consistently demonstrated its guiding principle—quality, speed, and trust — not merely in words but in action. This tangible performance has been thoroughly evaluated by independent institutions and deemed worthy of recognition.

The company is committed to addressing longstanding challenges in Ethiopia’s real estate sector, including delays in construction, price inflation, and lack of trust between developers and customers. Temer aims to make housing accessible to all at a fair and reasonable cost.

According to Osman Mohammed, Promotion and Events Manager at Temer Properties, the company’s customer-centered service approach played a major role in earning the award:

“Temer places customer comfort at the heart of its operations. We are deeply grateful for this recognition. We are always number one, and we are confident that we will continue on this path.”

Looking Ahead

“Our journey continues, and our destination is far,” the company states. Temer remains fully committed to contributing its share in addressing one of Ethiopia’s most fundamental needs—housing—without hesitation.

Driven by a bold vision, the company has successfully launched 28 active sites within just a few years.

Ms. Semira Kedir, Head of Finance, attributed the success to the company’s strategic business model: “Our ability to manage 28 active sites within just a few years, combined with our commitment to high-quality construction and affordable, flexible payment plans, has set us apart.”

Temer’s Construction Excellence

Temer Properties entered the market with a clear mission: to address systemic challenges such as construction delays, sudden price hikes, and the trust gap between developers and buyers. From the outset, the company entered the market intending to introduce innovative systems and create a lasting impact.

Understanding that slow construction leads to customer dissatisfaction and inflation, Temer places special emphasis on construction speed, without compromising quality.

Engineer Gezahagn Dechasa, Director of Superstructure Works at Temer Properties and one of the award recipients, explained:

“Temer’s unique approach lies in executing projects in three structured phases—substructure, superstructure, and finishing—ensuring timely delivery with high quality.”

By leveraging modern technologies and operating 24/7, Temer has strengthened both speed and efficiency. Engineer Gezahagn also extended congratulations to all construction staff for their devotion.

A Broader Mission

Temer Properties is determined to transform homeownership from a perceived luxury into a basic necessity, guided by its slogan: “Delivering homes like bread.”

By reducing construction costs and offering flexible payment systems, the company strives to serve the broader community and inspire other developers to follow suit.

The Grand Africa Award stands as recognition of Tamer’s dedication and vision, and as a milestone that fuels its future journey.

To all employees, leaders, and customers who have walked this journey together – congratulations to you all.
