George Mutua
George Mutua is the founder and CEO of Global Precast Panels, a pioneering build-tech company specializing in precast construction technology. In 2017, he and his wife invested KSh 20 million—funded through asset sales, loans, and hire purchase—to establish the company. Their first project, a three-bedroom house in Meru, garnered attention and led to subsequent contracts. The firm has since expanded its operations across Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania, constructing schools, churches, and residential buildings. Notably, during the COVID-19 pandemic, their rapid construction capabilities were instrumental in meeting urgent infrastructural needs. Under Mutua’s leadership, Global Precast Panels has grown from a startup to a company employing over 50 staff, with several rising through the ranks from internships. His innovative approach to construction has significantly reduced costs and timelines, earning him recognition in the Business Daily’s Top 40 Under 40 in 2023.
