FAQ

  • QIs edible oil refining a new sector in Ethiopia?
    ARecommendations Although edible oil refining is not a new sector in Ethiopia, there are currently very few edible oil factories with the knowledge, technical and equipment capacity, human resources, and supply chain required to expect fortification of edible oils to flourish.
  • QWhere does cooking oil come from in Ethiopia?
    AEdible oil for consumption in Ethiopia is mainly imported from different countries. In calendar year (CY) 15, Ethiopia imported 479,000 metric tons of cooking oil, valued at nearly $474 million dollars.
