With this in mind, Nuri has set goals in motion to become one of the top three African pharmaceutical companies by 2020. Through his endeavors, Medtech has advanced from trading limited drugs to manufacturing a variety of advanced medicines.

Nuri states that Medtech follows an invaluable level of respect and reputation for all included parties, striving toward the motto ‘we care to cure’.

To Nuri there is nothing more important than quality at the core of everything Medtech does, bringing affordable drugs to Ethiopians throughout the country and beyond.

“We are certainly endowed with numerous attractions, extensive historical sites, and a great climate mix, however, our competitive edge remains elusive because we are yet to properly develop and brand our product globally.

Despite this, in recent years, Ethiopia’s tourism and hospitality industry has
emerged as one of the key sectors driving the country’s economy. The tourist sector continues to flourish, owing it to a surge in both business
and leisure travel, with international and regional visitor numbers climbing.

This said, there are plenty opportunities for investors, not only in mid-scale hotels, but also in timeshare business, conference centers, water parks, golf courses, and recreation centers throughout the country.”
