Our Story
From one bakkie and a blueprint to a national construction partner.
Fifteen years on, the same hands-on discipline that started this company still signs off every project we deliver.
Established2010
"We started with one project, one promise — build it like it's your own. That hasn't changed."
— G.T Phiri, FounderMBC was founded in 2010 by Mr G.T Phiri and Mrs L.M Phiri with a clear purpose: combine technical expertise with entrepreneurial drive to uplift communities through honest, well-built construction.
What started as a single residential project in Modderspruit has grown into a full-service contractor delivering homes, commercial developments, civil works, road construction and specialised installations across Gauteng and beyond.
We've stayed family-led on purpose. It keeps us close to every project, accountable to every client, and personally invested in every site we open.
