Agriculture is the foundation of Ethiopia's economy and accounts for about 50% of the GDP, 84% of exports and 80% of total employment. This has contributed in making the food processing sector not only the largest manufacturing industry in the country but also one that offers top opportunities for investment.

FOODAGRO AFRICA - Africa's largest International Food, Hotel & Agriculture exhibition, aims to tap this huge investment potential with the launch of FOODAGRO ETHIOPIA, to be held at The Millennium Hall, Addis Ababa, from 21 - 23 March 2019. After 21 successful editions in Kenya and Tanzania, the event promises to bring together industry professionals, exporters, manufacturers and importers, all under one roof in one of Africa's fastest growing economies, Ethiopia.
