About Us

Kombolcha Steel Products Industry (KOSPI), a member of the Midroc Investment Group, was established in February 2000 with an initial capital of Birr 76 million, now grown to Birr 720 million.

KOSPI operates two plants — one in Kombolcha, Amhara Region, and another in Gelan, Oromia Region. The Kombolcha plant, established on approximately 60,000 m², produces corrugated and ribbed sheets for roofing, wall cladding, and fencing, together with a wide range of wire products.

These products include nails, screws, binding wires, chain-link, barbed wires, galvanized gabion wires, and various fabricated engineered products. The Gelan plant, covering approximately 25,000 m², focuses mainly on fabricated engineered products and selected standard products similar to those manufactured at Kombolcha. The plant also introduced roof tiles in 2014.

KOSPI is equipped with advanced technology and skilled professionals, including engineers who design, manufacture, and install a wide range of structures such as pre-engineered buildings, stadium and fuel-station canopies, transmission and communication towers, tanks, smart poles, and guard rails.

Over the years, the company has received multiple awards and recognitions from government institutions, customers, and business partners. KOSPI holds ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 certifications.
