Session 6: The Ethiopian textile and garment sector

An abundance of raw materials, a vast labour force and low energy costs give the Ethiopian textile and garment sector a comparative advantage over other countries and regions. This includes processes from the spinning, weaving and finishing of textile fabrics to the manufacturing of knitted and crocheted fabrics, carpets and sportswear. In this session, representatives of the government, sector specific institutes and associations, and the international business sector discussed investment opportunities in the production of cotton fibers, textiles and garments.
