Yanjian Group is a Chinese construction and engineering company. It is one of the 250 largest international contractors in 2013 as reported by Engineering News-Record magazine.[1]
Foreign aid projects sponsored by China are a frequent source of work for the company. The Nelum Pokuna Mahinda Rajapaksa Theatre is a theatre in Colombo, Sri Lanka built in 2011 by China as a gift to enhance ties with Sri Lanka.[2] Construction of the 1288 seat venue was handled by the Yanjian Group.[2] In 2013 in Ghana, it built a six-story building for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration, funded by a no-interest loan from China.[3] The earlier building on the site had been destroyed by fire.[3]
International contracting for the company is not limited to Chinese aid projects.[4] In 2013, the government of Uganda based on funding from the World Bank contracted 7 Chinese construction companies including Yanjian to renovate hospitals across the country.[4] In the first phase of contracting, Yanjian was allocated responsibility for the Nakaseke hospital in a project worth 12 billion Ugandan shillings.[4]
In addition to contracting work, the company develops real estate. In Brisbane, Australia, it invested in and developed the Midtown Apartments, a 72 million Australian dollar residential tower.[5]
