How to Source from Ethiopia

1. Find suppliers

Start from Browse Exporters. Search by product or filter by category and region to shortlist companies that match what you need to source.

2. Evaluate trust

Read each profile's trust signals. Look for a valid license, claimed-owner status, and verification badges. These are derived from registry data and our review process, not self-reported.

• Valid License: the exporter holds a current Ethiopian trade license.
• Claimed: a verified owner or representative manages the profile.
• Verified: the business or its representative has passed our verification.

3. Compare companies

Compare shortlisted exporters on products, certifications, operating history, and completeness of information. A richer, verified profile usually signals a more established and responsive supplier.

4. Contact exporters

Send a sourcing inquiry from the exporter's profile. Your message opens a private conversation inside Gizye, so you can discuss requirements directly with the seller.

5. Request quotations

In your inquiry, be specific: product, grade or specification, quantity, target incoterms, and destination. Clear requirements get faster, more accurate quotations.
