Who we are

Engineering excellence on both shores of the Red Sea.

Sofa Digital Technologies PLC is a technology company headquartered in Addis Ababa, with a branch in Jeddah. We design, build and support software that businesses depend on — from mobile apps and web platforms to cloud infrastructure, AI and security.

We work as a partner, not a vendor: we listen first, propose what fits, and stay with you after launch.
