  • Is edible oil refining a new sector in Ethiopia?
  • Recommendations 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.
  • Should oil be refined in Ethiopia?
  • According to the Ethiopian quality standard, all edible oil must be refined, although a number of specif- ic oilseeds can be semi-refined (see Appendix 1). Despite this requirement, many millers are selling crude oil particularly to the low income class. The government is planning to ban the sale of crude oil as from next year.
  • Where does cooking oil come from in Ethiopia?
  • Edible 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. Of this imported oil, more than 90 percent by volume was palm oil, most of which comes from Indonesia and Malaysia.
  • What is the market segmentation of Ethiopian edible oil?
  • Market Segmentation and Destination The market segmentation of Ethiopian edible oil depends on the destination where the product is to be sold. In Ethiopia there is shortage of edible oil and almost more than 95% of demand is being fulfilled by import from abroad. In addition, Ethiopia has no experience in exporting refined edible.
