Infrastructure defines societies and shapes cultures, and the Aveng story over the past 125 years is one of excellence, tenacity and commitment to building better communities in which it operates. Aveng considers it a privilege to have a rich heritage intimately tied with the development and growth of South Africa. Our mark is made in part through the world-class infrastructure that we build, but equally through the communities we have supported, the opportunities for employment and skills development we have created, and the expertise we have fostered over our long history.

Aveng believes that the key to effecting change through infrastructure development is to partner with government through its programmes and initiatives. In South Africa, the National Development Plan (NDP) outlines a long-term strategy to secure future growth and Aveng has highlighted the need to speak to its objectives.

Aveng operates in over 30 countries across the globe. Including all of our subcontractors, each day, more than 50 000 people pass through the gates of Aveng projects around the world. We are truly global yet proudly South African.

We fully believe that we must continue to be active participants in capacity building, skills transfer, addressing historical employment and supply chain imbalances through employment equity, as well as empowering emerging businesses and suppliers through our business operations.

A country that is not building is not growing, and as leaders in infrastructure and development, Aveng assumes responsibility for facilitating economic growth and cultural development, leaving a lasting legacy for future generations.
