“To me this is a reflection to the powerful testament on the trust our members place in the infrastructure development agenda we are driving.”
The multi-award winning entrepreneur said his vision for ZBCA was to make sure the association aligns with government’s national development strategy 2, focusing on infrastructure development and economic growth.
Manzungu said there was need for collaboration between government and stakeholders to drive the construction industry forward.
He said the next two years at the helm of ZBCA will be defined by advocating for policies that promote local construction companies, fair tender processes and increase in access to financing options.
“We need to be innovative and adopt an inclusive approach extending to small to medium scale contractors in provinces beyond the major metropolitan areas,”he said.
