Introduction
Hawassa, on the shore of Lake Hawassa, is one of the main cities of southern Ethiopia and the capital of the Sidama Region. Factories, hotels, coffee businesses and a large university community make it a busy place to work, and customers increasingly find all of them online first. Good web hosting in Hawassa keeps your site fast and available whenever someone searches for you.
Hostnali serves clients across Ethiopia, including Hawassa and the south, with domain registration, shared hosting, VPS hosting, reseller hosting and eCommerce hosting, managed from a single client area.
Doing business online in Hawassa
Hawassa Industrial Park, built around textiles and garments, has turned the city into a manufacturing centre, and with it came suppliers, transport firms, recruitment agencies and service companies. At the same time, the lake, its fish market and the resorts along the shore draw holidaymakers and conference guests from Addis Ababa and abroad. Hawassa University brings thousands of students and staff, and the coffee-growing areas around the city give local exporters and cafés a story worth telling online.
What businesses and organisations in Hawassa use their websites for:
- Garment suppliers, logistics firms and service companies presenting themselves to factories and international buyers
- Lakeside hotels, resorts and tour operators taking enquiries and bookings
- Coffee producers, roasters and cafés introducing their products to customers in Ethiopia and abroad
