1. Introduction
Ethiopia is one of the East African countries with the diversified climatic conditions, natural
scenery and resource bases This project envisages the establishment of a plant for the production
of prefabricated concrete with a capacity of 140,000 m 3 per annum.. Currently the country has
a total population of about 100 million of which more than 40 million is found in Oromia
regional state. Oromia is one of the regional states of Ethiopia with very fertile land, very
conducive weather condition both for crop production and animal husbandry.

The government of the Ethiopia has been excreting its maximum effort to expand investment
opportunities in the country by designing different policies and strategies that will facilitate
investment through attracting both domestic and foreign investors. Likewise, the Oromia
regional state government has been working day and night to make poverty history by making its
door open to investors both (domestic and foreign) to come and invest in the region.

Therefore, it is this ample opportunity and cumulative experience which makes the owner of the
project to envisage this concert construction materials industry in oromia special zone
surrounding finfine Zone in Holota town. The owner has a deep rooted experience in the field
because he has been serving on different managerial position from expert and technical manager
to general manager. Thus, it is these experiences which primarily motivated this investor to
develop the inception of this project idea.

Hence, being one of the concert construction materials production projects, it is planned to
provide: the soap that was imported from abroad. The present economic policy of our country
which is highly inviting the private sector to work on import substitution is highly motivating the
private sector to respond to the government invitation, there by contributing their share to the
development process. The project is identified because; the highly growing population of the
country is in need of different concert construction materials.

The major raw materials required are gravel, sand and cement which are available locally. The
present demand for the proposed product is estimated at 142,888 m 2 per annum. The demand is
expected to reach at 359,816 m2 by the year 2020.

2. MARKET STUDY AND PLANT CAPACITY

A. MARKET STUDY

1. Past Supply and Present Demand

Concrete is a composite building material made from the combination of aggregate (composite)
and a binder such as cement. The most common form of concrete is portland cement concrete,
which consists of mineral aggregate (generally gravel and sand), portland cement and water.
After mixing, the cement hydrates and eventually hardens into a stone-like material.

For a concrete construction of any size, as concrete has a rather low tensile strength, it is
generally strengthened using steel rods or bars (known as rebars). This strengthened concrete is
then referred to as reinforced concrete. In order to minimize any air bubbles, that would weaken
the structure, a vibrator is used to eliminate any air that has been entrained when the liquid
concrete mix is poured around the ironwork. Concrete has been the predominant building
material in this modern age.

Major advantage of concrete construction for buildings is the material's inherent properties of
heaviness and mass, which create lateral stiffness, or resistance to horizontal movement.

The source of supply for pre fabricated concrete is essentially from the domestic producers.
Although the expanding building and construction sector has given rise to demand for concrete,
official statistics is not available. Failing to assess the demand for prefabricated concrete based
on the supply, end use approach is applied.

One of the factors that indicate housing construction activity is trend in the provision of land by
the city administration. In this regard the city administration has provided a total of 10,000 plots
of land with a total land area of 76 million m2 during the period 1998 – 2005 to private residential
quarters, commercial buildings and real estate developers. (See Table 3.1).

From the total land provided during the period of analyses the largest share in terms of number
of plots is accounted by private residential quarter (93.9%). However, in terms of land area the

PROMOTER: - TOP CANDY MANUFACTURING PLC Page 9

largest (52.79 %) is provided to real estate developers followed by commercial buildings (24%)
and private residential quarter (23%).

During the period under review provision of land by the city administration for housing
construction activity has registered an average annual growth rate of 49.63% indicating the high

PROMOTER: - TOP CANDY MANUFACTURING PLC Page 10


Cement Based Concrete Products [Pick the

magnitude of housing demand and construction activity in the city both for commercial and
residential purpose.

Pre fabricated concretes are mainly used by high rise buildings. Accordingly, in order to estimate
the present demand for concrete based on end users method the present level of commercial
building construction is estimated first.

As can be seen from Table 3.1 during the period 1998 – 2005 the maximum number of plots
provided by the city administration for the construction of commercial buildings was 186 in year
2004 while the minimum was 5 in year 1998. However, during the period under consideration on
average 84 plots were annually granted for commercial building construction.

Even though during the same period plot of land provided for the construction of commercial
buildings shown a 172 % average growth rate, in order to estimate the present (2008) level of
commercial building construction it is conservatively assumed that commercial building
construction in Addis Ababa grows by 4% annually which is equivalent to the growth rate of
urban population.

Accordingly, by taking the average of 1998 - 2005 as a base and employing a 4% growth rate the
number of commercial building construction in Addis Ababa in the year 2008 is estimated at 94.

Moreover, in order to estimate the size of the commercial buildings, data on construction permits
in Addis Ababa is collected and analyzed. Table 3.2 shows the average building construction
permits given during the period 2000 – 2002 by type of building.

 Market Prospect
According to current studies the products of the project have high demand as a result the project
will have a dependable all the year round market throughout the entire project's life. The
products produced by the project will be sold through direct sale channel to buyers. The project's
main market will be main cities of the country like Addis Ababa, Mojo, D/Zeit, Nazareth/Adama
and Awassa … etc.

Accordingly, assuming that the past trend in the type of commercial building construction in
Addis Ababa will also currently apply , out of the total 94 commercial buildings estimated to be
constructed in year 2008, the estimated share of building types is shown in Table 3.3.

In order to estimate pre-fabricated concert requirements by the above buildings, it is assumed


that 50% of the commercial buildings will utilize concert.

Moreover, the determination of current demand is based on specifying consumption requirement


of concrete by the end users. Accordingly, the following consumption coefficients were
developed in consultation with knowledgeable professionals and by reviewing Building
Construction Manuals (see Table 3.4).

2. Projected Demand

The rapid development of high-rise buildings has created high demand for pre fabricated
concrete. The demand for pre fabricated concrete is directly related with the growth in the
construction sector which in turn depends on the overall economic development of the country.
Therefore, demand is projected at the annual average GDP growth rate achieved in the past few
years i.e. 8.%. The projected demand is presented in Table 3.5.

C. FINANCIAL EVALUATION
1. Profitability

Based on the projected profit and loss statement, the project will generate a profit through
out its operation life. Annual net profit after tax will grow from Birr 11.13 million to Birr
11.20 million during the life of the project. Moreover, at the end of the project life the
accumulated cash flow amounts to Birr 133.27 million.

2. Ratios

In financial analysis financial ratios and efficiency ratios are used as an index or yardstick
for evaluating the financial position of a firm. It is also an indicator for the strength and
weakness of the firm or a project. Using the year-end balance sheet figures and other
relevant data, the most important ratios such as return on sales which is computed by
dividing net income by revenue, return on assets ( operating income divided by assets),
return on equity ( net profit divided by equity) and return on total investment ( net profit
plus interest divided by total investment) has been carried out over the period of the
project life and all the results are found to be satisfactory.

3. Break-even Analysis

The break-even analysis establishes a relationship between operation costs and revenues.
It indicates the level at which costs and revenue are in equilibrium. To this end, the
break-even point of the project including cost of finance when it starts to operate at full
capacity ( year 3) is estimated by using income statement projection.

BE = Fixed Cost = 27 %

Sales – Variable Cost

4. Payback Period

The pay back period, also called pay – off period is defined as the period required to
recover the original investment outlay through the accumulated net cash flows earned by
the project. Accordingly, based on the projected cash flow it is estimated that the
project’s initial investment will be fully recovered within 7 years.
171-2

5. Internal Rate of Return

The internal rate of return (IRR) is the annualized effective compounded return rate that
can be earned on the invested capital, i.e., the yield on the investment. Put another way,
the internal rate of return for an investment is the discount rate that makes the net present
value of the investment's income stream total to zero. It is an indicator of the efficiency or
quality of an investment. A project is a good investment proposition if its IRR is greater
than the rate of return that could be earned by alternate investments or putting the money
in a bank account. Accordingly, the IRR of this porject is computed to be 19.28 %
indicating the vaiability of the project.

6. Net Present Value

Net present value (NPV) is defined as the total present ( discounted) value of a time
series of cash flows. NPV aggregates cash flows that occur during different periods of
time during the life of a project in to a common measuring unit i.e. present value. It is a
standard method for using the time value of money to appraise long-term projects. NPV
is an indicator of how much value an investment or project adds to the capital invested. In
principal a project is accepted if the NPV is non-negative.

Accordingly, the net present value of the project at 8.5% discount rate is found to be
Birr 30.09 million which is acceptable.

D. ECONOMIC BENEFITS

The project can create employment for 32 persons. In addition to supply of the domestic
needs, the project will generate Birr 20.92 million in terms of tax revenue. The project
creates backward linkage with cement, gravel and sand producers and forward linkage
with the construction sector.
