According to reports by New Business Ethiopia, the facility with a daily production capacity of 1.5 million litres of palm oil is deemed to be the largest edible oil factory in the country to potentially cover 60% of the country’s demand when fully operational.
The company has three refining plants, one in Malaysia and two in Indonesia, which have a total refining capacity of 4,700tn a day. It also has a storage capacity of 135,000tn, in three different locations. The company is not new to the Ethiopian market, having supplied the Ethiopian government since they started importing palm-oil.

Resting on 50, 000 sq m, the plant will have a capacity of processing 500 MT of oilseeds (600,000 lit) a day and is expected to save 25% of the nation’s foreign currency expenditure. Though Ethiopia has a huge potential to produce oilseeds and cooking oil, the majority of its people depend on imported palm oil purchased with government subsidy.
With the joining of four oil manufacturing projects, the country would be able to produce 50.6 million litres of palm, 27 million litres of sunflower, and 21.8 million litres of soybean oil annually. But for Getachew Asfaw, an expert in economic planning with vast experience, this is only possible if there will be enough amount of forex
