Bishan Gari Water Purification Industry PLC started in July of 2008. We opened the doors to our factory to address an ever growing problem faced in Ethiopia and in other emerging economies alike. That problem is the growing number of people who die each year due to water borne diseases. It is estimated that millions people die each year due to water borne diseases worldwide. In Ethiopia, other expert studies show that approximately 300,000 children under five years of age die each year because of drinking unsafe, contaminated water.
Our company has the capacity to produce 58.4 million sachets of Bishan Gari water purification powder annually, or in other words provide 1,168 million liters of clean drinking water. Our firm meets and exceeds the quality demands of various medical and international quality standard institutes, as well as individual subject matter experts engaged in water sanitation policy and research. Our product has been tested by the Ethiopian Federal Ministry of Health Certificate and the Ethiopian Drug Administration and Control Authority.
