The Ogarus story
Nearly three decades of combined experience.
Founded by Clint Nell and Blessing Tarugarira, Ogarus brings together extensive local and international experience across technology infrastructure, residential construction and commercial spaces.
Our approach is straightforward: understand the property, plan the work properly and deliver a result that performs for years—not only on handover day.

The clear distinction
Construction begins

Construction begins
with your project.
You bring the property, land, approved plan or defined scope. Ogarus brings the construction team, trade coordination and quality control required to execute it properly.
This division is for client-led building work. It does not include Ogarus originating or developing the property opportunity itself.
