Hormuud does alot for somalis runti , they are the biggest employers and biggest donors in Somalia. Regulation should be put in place against giant companies like them tho

Yep more than 20,000 employed, providing cheapest telecom prices in Africa and some of the fastest data. And it’s growing every year, they are looking to expand to neighbouring countries.
We should support our business to become regional powerhouses. Not cut them down ffs
Hopefully Somalia joining the East African Community will help companies like Hormuud expand in South Sudan and else where

Of course they are good at business, but they also play dirty. It's not healthy for an economy for one company to control everything. They stifle innovation and competition.

There should be a free market, for sure. They practically own the government however lol
Actually we get tough competition from Dahabshiil and other Isaac companies. Those bastards tried to expand in Mogadishu's market and they won't even let us compete with them in Hargeysai or Somalilands market. Puntland won't even allow Hawiye businessman to open offices over there.

Hormuud practically strangles the South. Dahabshiil, another monopoly in the North is no better. They should be remoulded into the likes of the Chaebols of Korea or the Zeibatsu of Japan with their focus directed by industrial policy into strategic industries, rather than competing against every Faarax with a new business idea.
Also, you shouldn't let Landers in if they won't let you invest in theirs
The government should give full financial backing to companies like Hormud to expand into as many markets as possible within Somalia without them having to think about making a profit or breaking even. We should replicate the way South Korea used their Chaebols to stimulate econlmic expansion
We welcome competition. Besides landers have no chance against us when it comes to business. They are not in our level. They even had the parent company of Hormuud, Al Barakaat labelled as terrorist with support from AY. AY also wanted to crush Hawiye monopoly over Somalia's market. It was Sheikh Shariff who asked the US to lift the sanctions when he became president. Somaliland and Puntlands market is very tiny compared to Mogadishu's. They can keep the monopoly of their tribal fiefdom as we get to hold the real economy of the country

Billions. Couldn’t find a specific number online Laakin Hormuud as a company is more financially well off and also hold more power than the goverment imo. As soon as you arrive to Somalia you see the bus carrying you from the plane to the arrival place all have Hormuud signs and ads on them and the last thing I saw after the plane took off from Mogadishu was a huge billboard which was a hormud advertisement
that explains a lot tbh
This 150-bed hospital cost 4 million in Rwanda.

Hormuud Salaam Foundation donated 3,000 oxygen cylinders to Somali hospitals.
Over the last nine years as CEO of Hormuud Salaam Foundation (HSF), I’ve seen tremendous growth in Somalia. I have had the privilege of working with Somalia’s expanding private sector to bring life changing assistance to our local communities. This year, we have faced challenges on all fronts. But I have never been prouder and more steadfast in my belief in the resourcefulness of the Somali people.
I am saddened that Somalia is facing a difficult second wave. Though I firmly believe that if we rise to it together, as a united Somalia, we can support our people and businesses through this critical time. When the pandemic first hit in February 2020, HSF shifted its resources to supporting the needs of a population living through a global pandemic. We were well positioned to meet this challenge as we already work in the medical, educational, public service, and micro finance sectors.
In 2020, HSF and partners donated US$5 million towards our country’s coronavirus healthcare and pandemic relief efforts. In 2021 we made a new pledge to support and help raise US$4 million for the Somalia Action Network Covid-19 relief fund.
Thankfully, we have spent years improving Somalia’s medical infrastructure. In 2017, HSF outfitted Erdogan Teaching and Training Hospital, with a dialysis department. When the pandemic hit, I put the weight of the Foundation behind the rapid renovation of four departments at Banadir Hospital, in Mogadishu. We installed special Covid-19 facilities in a short two months. The renovations created extra capacity of 200 beds, making it easier for the region’s healthcare professionals to treat Covid-19 patients.
Our most recent donation will help the Somalia Action Network Covid-19 relief fund buy oxygen plants, canisters and other medical equipment to supply ten major hospitals in ten cities across Somalia. Separately, in March 2021 we purchased the country’s first ever oxygen plant for public use from Turkey. The plant will produce 1,000 cylinders of oxygen per week, filling a desperate need for oxygen at hospitals. Money from the relief fund has been earmarked to secure up to nine more oxygen plants in order to create a self-sufficient supply in Somalia.
In addition, the Foundation has donated 3,000 cylinders of oxygen to hospitals around Somalia. We have also loaned two ambulances to Martini Hospital, used to transport covid patients in critical conditions from around the capital.
Our efforts were kindly recognised by Health Minister Dr. Fawzia Abikar Nur, “I want to extend my special thanks to Hormuud Telecom for helping to rebuild four sections of Bandadir Hospital as the second disease and quarantine centre in Somalia.”
As we fight the second wave of the pandemic, the first vaccine delivery by the WHO’s COVAX programme gives us hope. But there is so much more to do. So far, the vaccines allocated to Somalia fall way short of inoculation targets. I urge the international community to play their part by supplying sufficient vaccines for the Somali population.
Somalis are resilient. Hormuud Telecom and HSF will continue to support the Somali people through this global pandemic and into the post-pandemic recovery.
