Who are we?

Our CEO

I arrived in Sainte-Marie in 1997 as a mechanic, and worked in this profession for two years before being appointed foreman on the Maningory Hotel construction site. It was then that I discovered a true passion for construction. Gradually, I began to acquire small tools like a wood saw, a set square, and chisels, and I made my first artisanal creations, including small stools. Thanks to the guidance and instruction of experienced carpenters, I learned the basics of the trade and understood that carpentry could become much more than just a hobby: a new career path.

In 2009, I officially founded my construction company, driven by the desire to build with quality and a sense of responsibility. I began investing in professional woodworking machinery and building a qualified team. As in any entrepreneurial adventure, there have been ups and downs, but today, the company is still standing, stronger than ever, driven by its know-how, its experiences and a competent and passionate team.

Starting our business on the island of Sainte-Marie naturally led us toward high-end construction, including private villas for foreign clients, as well as environmentally friendly eco-lodges for various hotels.

At KELY FA DADA, we build with a focus on sustainability and self-sufficiency. This translates into integrating ecological solutions such as using solar panels for electricity and building wells for water supply.

We started small, with modest means, but with a big vision. That's why we named our company KELY FA DADA, which means "Small but Responsible"—a phrase that perfectly captures our journey. Thanks to the trust of our clients, we have been able to grow and take on increasingly important responsibilities, such as the renovation of Madagascar's first Catholic church as part of a government project.

Today, KELY FA DADA is a company that combines tradition, innovation and respect for the environment, serving its customers with rigor and commitment.
