About Eimad Maihan Construction and Logistics:

Established in 2016, Etimad Maihan unites Etimad Maihan Construction Company and Etimad Maihan Logistics Services as a single, accountable partner for works and end-to-end supply-chain delivery across Afghanistan. We plan and execute civil and structural construction; fabricate and convert containers into fully fitted facilities; operate and maintain sites; and run compliant procurement, warehousing, and nationwide distribution. Our fleet underpins last-mile logistics alongside full-scope transportation services and vehicle rentals.

With 50+ completed assignments, we have implemented programs with UN agencies and international NGOs, partnered with the Government of Afghanistan, and served private-sector clients. We focus on transparent pricing, schedule discipline, and community-centred delivery, including dedicated women’s engagement. Backed by experienced teams and provincial networks, we consistently achieve safe, compliant, fit-for-purpose results—on time and within budget.
