BUILDING A STRONGER ANGOLA FOR OVER 35 YEARS
UNLOCKING ANGOLA’S FULL POTENTIAL
We believe that Angola’s long-term success depends on inclusive and widespread development—where opportunities are not limited to a few regions, but are available to people across the entire nation. That’s why our group of companies is committed to maintaining a strong presence in all 18 provinces of Angola. By operating at a national scale, we aim to support local communities, generate employment, and stimulate sustainable economic growth in both urban centers and rural areas.
We actively collaborate with both domestic and international investors, forging strategic partnerships that bring in capital, innovation, and expertise. Through these efforts, we are creating a more dynamic, diversified, and resilient economy. Our goal is to be a catalyst for meaningful investment that benefits all Angolans—unlocking the country’s full potential, one province at a time.
Building Angola’s future requires knowing its past
For over 35 years, we have identified gaps in the Angolan economy and invested in companies to fill them. From shopping centers to transportation to hospitals, we structure investments and businesses across a wide range of industries.
In 1984, Valdomiro Minoru Dondo founded the VMD Group, which is now one of the largest conglomerates of companies in Angola. Through our family of companies across multiple business sectors, the VMD Group has helped post-civil war reconstruction as well as the development and – more recently – the diversification of Angola’s economy by creating jobs, building capacity and technical expertise, and expanding the network of international investors and commercial partners who see the Angolan market as a long-term opportunity.
Today, we directly employ over 6,000 people and contribute to the employment of thousands more. We invest in employee education and skills training, and follow a formal Code of Conduct guided by the World Bank Integrity Compliance Guidelines.
