Construction is one of the most important sectors in the country.
It has witnessed unprecedented growth in recent years. For example, residential construction grew significantly, particularly in Malé and in the recently reclaimed Hulhumalé. This growth reflects the natural growth of the population and rapid urbanization.
Malé being the main commercial hub of the country and the Capital City, a large number of people from the outer Islands migrate to Malé annually looking for employment opportunities, better health and better educational services.
