Where are edible oil processing factories located in Ethiopia?
In addition, several large edible oil processing factories are under construction or in a pilot phase (located in Bahir Dar, Debre Markos, Burie, Wolkitie, Sebeta, and Dire Dawa). These large-scale factories have a designed production capacity greater than the annual edible oil demand within Ethiopia.
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.
Does Ethiopia produce edible oil?
Despite Ethiopia being a major producer and exporter of oilseeds, it imports more than three-fourths of its domestic edible oil consumption. The sector has potential due to the increase in demand. Small scale millers currently supply more than 60% of the domestically produced edible oil. One of the main inputs here is noug.
Why is a mapping study important for edible oil fortification in Ethiopia?
This mapping study focused in the administrative regions of Ethiopia where oil production takes place to provide prioritization of efforts for further planning, technical assistance, monitoring, and research throughout the forthcoming edible oil fortification program. This mapping serves as a baseline to that effect.
