It is the administrative center of Mana Sibu woreda.

Mendi hosts an airport (ICAO HAMN, IATA NDM), with an unpaved runway 1250 meters in length. Upgrading and rehabilitating the 131 kilometers of the all-weather gravel road connecting Mendi with Nejo was completed in January 2009, while the road connecting Mendi to Asosa was still being improved.

History

Dejazmach Gebre Egziabher constructed a church in Mendi in 1893. However, when the Dejazmach regained his rights to levy taxes over his father's former kingdom in 1907, the central government excepted the "gate" of Mendi, which was retained to the customs office in Nekemte. "This sealed the right of the centre to fiscal control over Nekemte, a right that Addis Abeba was never to abandon in the years to come."
