  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Are edible oil factories underutilized?
  • Most edible oil factories, regardless of size are being underutilized and not operating at full capacity. In addition, the dominance of imported palm oil, hinders local production of edible oils.
  • 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.
