Ethiopia: Ethiopia Aims to Become One of the World’s Top 10 Sugar Producers

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

In recent years, the Government of Ethiopia (GOE) has made considerable investments to boost the country’s capacity to produce sugar. With these investments, the GOE envisions the country becoming one of the world’s ten largest sugar producers by 2023. In the meantime, post expects sugar production to continue its upward climb, hitting a record of 400,000 metric tons in MY15/16 (May-Apr). Imports during the same period are projected at 205,000 metric tons. Next year, however, the GOE expects sugar production to expand to a point where imports will no longer be needed.
