Ethiopia’s mining sector is recording strong commercial growth under ongoing macroeconomic reforms, according to Mines Minister Habtamu Tegegne. New investments include a 10 billion Birr ceramic factory in North Shewa, financed by Chinese investors and nearing completion. The facility will source most inputs locally, substitute ceramic imports, support construction supply chains, and generate exportable surplus, highlighting rising foreign investment and expanding domestic mineral-based manufacturing capacity.
