This marks the beginning of a determined journey of the Africa Federation towards developing long-term sustainable investments, laying a foundation of self-sufficiency and growth.
“The Africa Federation new approach is aiming at long-term innovative and sustainable developments, the reformation in our midst is necessary and we must therefore act swiftly with good planning and prudence. The current trend of the global economy should be taken as an advent of opportunity to change our mindsets and directions” – Alhaj Anwarali Dharamsi.
The Federation of Khoja Shia Ithna Asheri Jamaats of Africa recently marked the start of the works towards the construction of the Africa Federation Commercial Complex on Plot No. 11 along Vingunguti Industrial Area, Nyerere Road, Dar es Salaam.
This Project was initiated following the adoption of a Resolution presented by AFED Secretariat at the 73rd Supreme Council Session held in Arusha in April 2012, to purchase a prime Property in Dar-es-Salaam for the purpose of developing a Commercial Project in order to generate income towards long-term running of the various activities of the Africa Federation, the first of its kind for the Africa Federation.
On 6th November 2012, a short ground-breaking ceremony to commence the landmark project was held at the site, the ceremony was attended by the Africa Federation Office Bearers, Trustees, Vice President of Dar es Salaam Jamaat, Alhaj Azim Dewji, Resident A’alim of Dar es Salaam Jamaat, Sheikh Murtadha Alidina, Councillors and some well-wishers in Dar-es-Salaam.

We wish to acknowledge with thanks the assistance extended by M/s.
