When planning a warehouse project, one of the biggest concerns is cost control. Steel prices fluctuate, projects grow unexpectedly, and unclear scopes often lead to overruns. To address this, Zamforge Steel introduced a clear and structured $18 per square metre warehouse deal — designed for clients who want transparency, control, and professional execution.
This offer has generated strong interest, but it’s important to understand exactly what it includes, who it’s for, and how it applies.
What the $18 per sqm Covers
The $18 per square metre rate covers everything related to the steel structure except the steel material and consumables.
This includes:
• Project consultation and scope definition
• Design coordination and structural planning
• Full steel fabrication
• On-site installation and execution (within Lusaka)
The client is responsible for supplying:
• Steel material
• All consumables required for fabrication and installation (welding rods, cutting discs, paints, etc.)
This structure keeps execution costs clear while giving the client full control over material sourcing.
Why We Structured the Deal This Way
Steel and consumable costs vary based on supplier, availability, and project timing. Instead of inflating execution costs to cover these variables, the $18/sqm model separates materials and consumables from fabrication and installation.
This creates three key advantages:
1. Clear Pricing
Clients know exactly what they are paying Zamforge for — professional fabrication, skilled labour, and controlled execution.
2. Cost Flexibility
Clients can source steel and consumables independently or through preferred suppliers, based on availability and budget.
3. Execution Accountability
While materials are supplied by the client, Zamforge remains fully responsible for fabrication quality, fit, and installation.
Project Location & Applicability
The $18 per sqm warehouse deal is valid for projects within Lusaka.
For projects outside Lusaka, pricing will vary to account for:
•Transportation of steel and equipment
•Installation team accommodation
•Crane hire and site-specific machinery
•Extended installation timelines
These costs are assessed based on project location and scope to ensure safe and proper execution.
Who This Deal Is Best For
This model is ideal for:
•Developers and businesses operating in Lusaka
•Clients with access to steel and consumables
•Projects requiring professional execution without bundled material pricing
•Industrial, commercial, agricultural, and logistics warehouses
What This Deal Is Not
The $18/sqm deal does not mean:
•Reduced design standards
•Lower fabrication quality
•Rushed installation
•Compromised safety
All projects follow the same engineering discipline and execution standards as Zamforge’s full-scope warehouse builds.
How the Process Works
1. Project consultation and size confirmation
2.Design coordination and fabrication planning
3.Client supplies steel material and consumables
4.Zamforge fabricates and installs the structure
5.Final checks and handover
Why Clients Choose This Model
Clients choose this approach for transparency and control. By separating materials from execution, budgets are easier to manage and expectations remain clear from the start.
For many repeat clients, this has proven to be the most efficient way to deliver steel warehouse structures in Lusaka.
