Established in 1957 by George Demblon, GDI initially operated as a small family business specializing in switchboard manufacturing. In 1984, the company successfully transitioned into constructing kapenta rigs and cargo boats, and by 1985, it ventured into the realm of houseboat production. Under the leadership of Gerard Demblon, GDI has proudly ventured into boat manufacturing and built over 105 custom-designed houseboats and sunset cruisers in the past 37 years, alongside numerous smaller projects, all executed with utmost precision by our exceptional team.
Expanding Horizons and Impressive Milestones
GDI’s growth trajectory includes the development of larger vessels, such as the African and Zimbabwean Dream, which stand as the company’s most substantial accomplishments to date. With a humble start in 1985 with 55ft houseboats, our expertise has expanded exponentially. Today, we offer an extensive range of boat sizes and designs, tailored to meet the unique preferences and requirements of our esteemed clients.
