  • Ethiopia Expands Rail and Dry Port Capacity to Strengthen Trade Independence
March 28,2026

Ethiopia is advancing its trade and logistics network through the expansion of the Indode Dry Port and the completion of the 3-kilometer AMG–Indode Railway Line, the country’s first privately financed rail project. The dry port upgrade is set to increase container storage capacity fivefold and cut cargo handling time from 10 hours to just two, significantly improving the flow of exports such as coffee. Officials say the projects will reduce transport costs, speed up cargo movement, and enhance the efficiency of the national logistics system. The government views these self-financed infrastructure developments as key to boosting economic sovereignty and positioning Ethiopia as a leading trade and industrial hub in Africa.
