Summary

Moving coffee at the Ethiopian Commodity Exchange's warehouse in Awassa. Last year, the warehouse handled more than 870,000 bags of coffee. The coffee is stored according to quality – in grades from one to ten.

DFID supported two leading research institutes who were tasked with finding a solution to Ethiopia's inefficient food and commodity markets.

The UK aid funded research recommended setting up a commodity exchange and helped to design the warehousing, logistics and payment systems that the exchange uses today. The exchange helps to boost exports and secure a better deal for farmers and consumers.
