The Challenge

Luxury residential projects like Jasmine Villa require precision, consistency, and speed with materials supply. Fountain Havens needed a supplier who could:

• Deliver large volumes of materials without delays
• Provide custom sizing for structural components
• Maintain quality across multiple phases of construction
• Respond quickly to site feedback and evolving needs

Build Africa’s Solution

Build Africa was selected as the primary supplier for core building materials. The logistics team, led by Akin Mudasiru, ensured seamless coordination and delivery across the project’s lifecycle.

Materials Supplied

• Granite: Over 80% of total granite, including custom sizes for structural integrity.
• Cement: Approximately 75% of the cement used for foundational and finishing work.
• Sand: Up to 60% of the sand required for groundwork and blockwork.

“For Jasmine Villa, we supplied the bulk of the cement and granite, materials critical to the structure. The client needed precision, and we delivered exactly the sizes they requested, on time and in full. That’s the Build Africa standard.”
