About Hiring Company
Everything starts from an idea. But every idea might not see the
daylight of success without hard work and diligence. 15 years ago, Horra
Trading was just an idea in the mind of Mr. Adem Kedir who meticulously worked
day and night to turn it into a reality in 2005, basing himself on his
extensive skill and knowledge in coffee and coffee trade. Mr. Adem Kedir’s
coffee trade career started as the succeeding generation from his grandfather
Mr. Abbahawa and his father Mr. Kedir Hadjji Hassan in Ethiopia. As the third-generation
successor of the family coffee business, Mr. Adem has made the leap from his
involvement in traditional and domestic coffee market to international coffee
trade by forming his own business entity by the name of Horra Trading in 2005.
What was started as a simple
trading business entity in 2005, Horra Trading has made it possible to create
diversified businesses under Horra Corporate Group. Currently, Horra Corporate
Group business portfolio includes coffee and oil seeds export, coffee
plantation, automotive assembly, import and distribution, propylene technology
manufacturing, technology, real estate development and transit and forwarding.
Currently, Horra Corporate Group is led by the CEO, Mr. Adm Kedir, and by
qualified and experienced professionals, with 550 permanent staff members and
800 temporary workers working in the corporate office and in different business
units.
